Sage Cemetery Page Two

For Keith to know where the old Horace Sage place is located at.

This is looking over towards the Oneida Cemetery which would be Northerly.

The barn you see on the right upper

left is of the second farm when you turn on the road. just before the cemetery.

This is standing at the cemetery looking south but not at the house. the red equipment is just on the west side of the house. Post Road used to go out that way.  but as you can see it's a field now.

Standing at Cemetery & looking back down Post Road towards the Two other farm houses.

This is the cemetery looking straight west and standing near Post Road. Just before you get to the house which sits on the right or west side of road.

Main House is one the south and the carriage house is on the north with the breeze way in between. I was standing on Post Road when I took this just outside my car door because I was getting cold.
All Photos beyond this point are thumbnails of the original photos click on for better view. Thanks

All photos taken below after the big snow storm March 21, 2006. Photos taken today, March 22, 2006 6am. cold.

Standing just outside Oneida looking out at Houses.  on the far right while looking at photo is the Sage Property.
Same place just a little over this is Dayton Street going out of Oneida. It ends at the curve and that's Post Road
Standing in same place as above and looking back at the Town of Oneida. I'm on Dayton Street
This is at the curve in the road. where Dayton Street ends and Post begins have another photo took but can't find it.
Standing at curve looking down Post Road the farm house on left is the hired hands place.  One on right in back ground Sage place and on left is the cemetery but you cant' see it.
Telephoto to make close.  You can see house on right and cemetery on left.  the little hump
Standing on the west side of the cemetery and looking at the house.  This would of been the carriage house.
Standing south of cemetery looking North.  Hired Hands house in background the road on the left is Post Road.
Curve where Dayton Street ends and Post begins.  It only turns Right. Oneida in background.
standing a north and looking south. this is a telephoto view of it . Sage house on right hand corner.  sun blocking view in finder.
Just before the Dayton ends. this is a drive way back to the first house out here.
Hired Hands house.  not good but can go back.
This is the end of Post Road.  the house in the background is what the map is showing you where the place is and that's wrong.
Corner of 1440 and 2400N  2400N runs east & west.  house is in the background.
This is taken from the car and I'm sitting on 2440N right across from the house before the junction above.
Teleview of house from same place in above caption
Teleview of house from 2440N Road.
Teleview from 2400N same place as above three photos just wanted to make sure they all turned out as I'm pressed for time this morning.  2400JN is in Sparta Twp or the township line Road.
Keith, will do the map comparisons and show you and such.  It's not that far from Oneida and also. the road actually runs north and south as you can see from the photos and from every map I have and I've seen the road is not running correctly. Makes this harder than it should be and the road is closed and doesn't go through anymore.
This is the county map and Post Road should actually run North and south but it doesn't.  But where the green circle is where the house is.  will make better later.
Map of Oneida going to Sage Cemetery and Horace Sage's Homestead.
The below photos were taken March 22, 2006 when the stupid sun was going down and it's in the way.  Plus, was in a hurry. After Six o'clock already, picking up Kate from Track practice.
from Joy Street Teleview. Need to redo this photo sun shining too much on it.
Distant shot from Joy Street leaving Oneida.
Too much sun makes it kind of a little blurry.  but was the best out of three shots. 
Hired Hands house with the barn that used to sit at Horace Sage Homstead.
Now as Kate & go down 2400N we come to corner of 1240E we turn left and go right then I stop directly across from the house. this is a distant shot but the Sun in the way. as you can see.  Too much sun. 
Best of the telephoto shots from 1240E Road.  It's a gravel road. and goes clear through to IL state route #34 that runs between Oneida and Altona.  We are not in Walnut Grove Twp.
