NOTES
Additional Information:2000: "This farmstead consists of a circa 1920s, gambrel-roof farmhouse and three outbuildings. Rising from a stuccoed foundation, the one-and-one-half story house is sheathed with vinyl siding, while the roof is covered with asphalt shingles. The main (south) facade is dominated by an open porch protected by a hipped roof supported by two heavy, stucco-clad, square piers. The bottom of the stucco-clad porch railing is defined by a series of arched openings while the top is capped with concrete. The west facade displays an open entry porch with a basically flat roof supported by a pair of fluted, wooden, Doric columns. The porch railing is covered with stucco and capped with concrete. Both the east and west sides of the roof are interrupted by large, gambrel-roof dormers that are pierced by a pair of one-over-one, double-hung sashes. One brick and one metal chimney straddle the roof ridge. Fenestration throughout the remainder of the structure consists of a variety of irregularly spaced, modern casement and double-hung sashes.

A large, circa-1860s, board and batten dairy barn is situated to the west of the farmhouse. It has a gabled roof and is covered with asphalt shingles. A contemporary cut-stone silo without its cap is adjacent to the barn's west side. A large, modern, metal-clad, pole barn also exists at the rear of the property.

Historic plats indicate that M. Aerts owned the property as early as 1889, although W. Aerts was the owner in 1903. By 1923, the farm had been passed to Martin Aerts, who retained it until at least circa 1928. He was most likely responsible for building the current residence. Research revealed no further information on the Aerts family. During the 1930s, Anthony Mankowski farmed the tract. By 1952, ownership of the property had passed to Elmer H. Braum. No information was located on either Mankowski or Braum."
