Image at top left shows the twin of our home that was on South Washington. This was demolished in the 1930's. Also see three shots of main street during the late 1800's / early 1900's. The images below, I believe, were taken in the late 1970's during the Adam's ownership.

looking into patio through "dead doors". one story we've heard about these doors is that they were intended to make it easier to move a casket in and out for showings in the parlor. we've also heard that it was merely intended for occasional access to the veranda. we have also read or heard these referred to as butler or garden doors. this is now a master bathroom space.
one of the basement archways
looking down back set of stairs. kitchen at the bottom. during the time this was taken, these stairs were intended to access two upstairs bedrooms. we have converted those two bedrooms into one large upstairs family room.
looking up into cupola or "widow's walk" as some have called it.
looking toward jones road. currently there is a detached garage here.
the framed garage that appears in this photo was demolished before we moved in. a detached garage was built on the left (north). i'm not sure when this was taken but i assume the garage in this photo is setting directly in front of the spring house.
