I believe this is the Emmo and Hilda Melvin place (1978) and now the Glen Oliphant place with the house and barn on the left side of the photo. Spent time mowing Hilda's lawn. Richard Parker rented the land back of the Melvin's which went back to the quarry that Kraemer's owned. Took lots of hay off that land and later lots of apples and hickory nuts too. The trailer house above the road is the Mel and Merle Dodge place. Loved visiting them. The two buildings on the bottom side of the road are the old Webster township hall where all the voting took place and shed for the road equipment which is now owned by Chris Parker and the buildings taken down. The township hall had a big pot bellied stove that warmed the place and after Richard Parker took possession of the corner it was for a short time a tobacco shed before it was torn down.
