Barn Detail

The old Sherrard residence possibly taken in 1910. By this date the house had been wired for electric lighting (note power lines coming into house). The image also depicts the wood shed and suspected summer kitchen located to the rear of the dwelling (photograph courtesy of Thomas Sherrard).
