The home, built in about 1880, is currently undergoing restoration by the present owners.
The construction of this home is very similar to the Christian Lehnherr home, in that both homes
have solid exterior walls. The home is shown in 1907 as being an old and vacant dwelling (but placement is a block off).
The old Bill Page barn on Maple street is being torn down. Yes, the old building that has stood so long and been a part
of the real life of the town when the auto was not so much in evidence, is being removed from the sight of the
present day worker. It has lived through its usefulness and now steps aside for the greater improvements. [Called the Barklow
Livery and Feed on the 1898 Sanborn map]
