Big Ol Barn
Our neighbors next year owns three structures that lived through the civil war. The rest in the valley were burned to the ground. One of those very structures is the barn we are disassembling a piece at a time. This barn was built in 1844. The workmanship is amazing to have lasted this long. It had been added to many years later. We are working on the original structure now. What a neat piece of history right here in our "back yard". We have been told that this area we live in was once the dividing line between the North and the South, right here in this little ol valley. Reverend Pinkney Graham (1812-1877) owned this land that all these structures are on and was well respected in these parts. So during the civil war his lands were spared from the destruction.
Enjoy the pics this will be last time this barn will be standing. We hope to be able to salvage some of the logs to make a smaller structure to stay on the neighbors farm.
