Harold Irish - owned from 1974 to present. Farm looks a LOT different now. The house was remodeled over the years and is now basically a one story ranch house. The core of the house form the picture is still there (somewhere) deep inside. The upstairs was removed, the front porch and back porch boxed in and made into livable space, a garage added, and a big wing added to the north side of the house. The outhouse is gone, as is the old corn crib and the pump shed and animal shelter out back. The big barn is still there, but is now attached to a large pole barn off the back. That "little" willow tree in the front yard had a trunk over 3 feet across when it finally came down in the early 80s. The pines in the front had gotten huge too, but eventually consumers came and took both pines and both maples in the front along the street. Only the big maple in the middle of the front yard is still there, next to the garage. Crazy how much things have changed since I first moved there when I was 4!!!
