Evidence of Construction Date:
Sanborn maps of 1912 put the property onsite. An earlier date is possible, since this part was part of Spotsy county. Need to check tax records at the courthouse. 1907-1912 on Sanborn maps. FREDGIS places this house at 1889. I know this is an older house, I think the Sanborns are more accurate but I know these houses are older than 1910.
