    Comments, Additional Information, References

    I am attaching four images (see below) taken yesterday of a smokehouse at 2635 York Road West, aka True North Farm. The owner, Molly Cummings, took the images at my request, since I spotted the smokehouse in the backyard and got in touch with her - she is an acquaintance of mine. Based on the 1960s notes we've seen, I believe it is the smokehouse on "Buffalo St.", #6 on Preston's¹ numbered list. Holly Watson, Deputy Livingston County Historian, email 11/30/2020.
