The photo at the left is an old ariel photo of my home where I now live and what it looked like back in 1955. Not very good but best I can do at the moment. Fred Smith & Wife owned my home in 1955. The old barn is gone, as well as the little outhouse you can see to the back of the house. The garage is left but not as many trees now. |
