This is my grandparent's old home place (Garrard and Elva Keith) on Upper Rader. Across the drive from the barn was my grandfather's old garage and a shed. You can see the large rocks they used to form a walkway up to the porch of the house. I'm not 100% sure what all the other buildings were. The one behind the barn, up on the hill, was what was referred to as the "shop house". I think my grandpa used to keep tools and whatnot in there and he'd tinker around in there. Behind the house is what I BELIEVE to be the cellar, and over on the far left is probably their chicken coop/chicken house. There was a gas well the by the drive, which you can see in the lower right corner of the picture. That house is no longer there. It was torn down and a brick home was built there.
