Comments

The pin on the map is the approximate location of the Mail Pouch barn in the photo above. The Ohio Dept of Transportation aerial photo archives were researched to find the location of this barn. ODOT photo # 2979-26-931, dated Mar. 22, 1965 clearly shows the farm site with the buildings as noted in the photo above. In an ODOT photo dated Apr. 20, 1971, the buildings were all still remaining. In ODOT photo # 5817-7-373 dated Apr. 8, 1975 the barn and the house have been razed; however, the foundations of the buildings are clearly visible. The barn is ID'd as MPB 35-76-14 on the Mail Pouch Barnstormer's website.
