Additional Information: | MAP CODE IS 0709-134-1311-1. "Also constructed about 1890-1892 for Christian Horstmeyer, this building has served continually as a barber shop since John Gausman occupied it in 1896. It is of unusual construction in that it has no foundation other than a row of stones on which the building frame rests."
