"The Cobblestone Houses of Upstate New York", compiled by Dorothy Wells Pease, 1941. Research done in collaboration with Hazed B. Jeffery, supplemented with material furnished by Carl F. Schmidt. Reference the third paragraph on page 12.
The structure is listed as a residence on the Stonehenge Beef Farm (JUL 2012).
Editor's Note: The Cobblestone Museum Archives includes additional handwritten notes in the Chi-6 Smith-Krenzer History Notes Pages 1 - 6 that have not yet been transcribed and edited. A modest portion of the notes was apparently used in preparation for the publishing of the 11th Annual Cobblestone Tour pamphlet 06/12/1971 linked below.
