Fresh content coming soon!!

First post in two years

I own all or part of seven houses in Medaryville, an old farmstead in the Milltown neighborhood northeast of Monon, and I help take care of two other houses out in rural Jasper county, making ten all-told.

My most recent acquisition is the Theodore and Mary Bremer house, which was also built to house The Medaryville Telephone Company, in the style of the day (summer 1908).

The photo below is the Simpson and Florence Faris Low house, built in 1888.

I only recently got this machine back online reliably. I’m not sure this is the platform I will be using in the future to communicate. I’ve gone Wiki.

Beyond the house stuff, we are now also involved in a project to restore the pioneer Noggle Cemetery in Cass Township, Pulaski county. As part of that work I have visited and photographed graves at many Medaryville-area cemeteries. Annotated pictures can be found at the flickr.com site linked to on the front page of this site.

I hope to get back to my 2-3 articles/week pace here soon. In the meantime, the flickr picture site is where most of the latest things are being posted.
