I own this house now. I purchased it in 1992. Big addition on the West side of the house. The side room on the East side of the barn is gone. The little building behind the house does not have the West side overhang. The last two changes were before I purchased in 1992.

No fencing between barn and house to the East. The tall pine tree on the East side of the driveway fell down in a windstorm in Fall of 2022. There are trees and shrubs behind the barn and house.

Hi Joseph, thank you for sharing those interesting details about the changes to your house and the surrounding area! It's fascinating to hear how things have evolved since the photo was taken in 1983. As you've mentioned an addition on the West side of the house and the removal of the side room on the East side of the barn, I'm curious to know if these changes were related to farming activities or if there's another story behind it? Any other memories or specific details you can recall about Madison County during that time? We'd love to hear more!
