    Comments, Additional Information, References

    The Roudabush Survey states the address as 6211 Newark St. & Newark Rd., whereas the current address is 6211 Rt. 88.

    At 6211 Newark Rd. and Newark St., the two story house has an extensive wing added to the back. The wing may have been added later, since the masonry work is different in the wing than in the main house. Quoins are square cut gray limestone, and the window lintels are made of the same stone. Stones are lake washed red sandstone, laid five rows to the quoin in the front wall and four to the quoin on the sides. In the front, the pyramids between stones are shallow and short, while on the side the pyramids are broader and not as short. In the wing, the pyramids are less pronounced and are not as truncate at the bottom. Roudabush Survey page 111
