This is one of the best and informative websites! I
was looking for covered bridges and now looking at old
mills something I never thought of so I love taking
pictures of the past and now I have another resource
to look 'em up. Here are some of my photos

What a unique and different site. My
hat off to you. The hours it must have taken to
take and assemble all these
great pictures..is incredible. As an
historical artist who majors in pen and
ink birds eye views of actual historical
places, I'm always on the look out for pictures
that will help me authenticate my works. Salud.

I'm a video producer at Metro Productions, in
Richmond, Virginia and I am currently working on a TV
commercial ... and there is a scene that I need to
create about rural America - patriotic. I want to use
a classic red barn in this shot - and of course I love
the Ohio Bicentennial Barns, but we can't travel to
Ohio for this shoot. So, my idea is to have a father
and son painting a U.S. Flag on a barn. Of course, the
barn would already have to be painted. I noticed that
there are some wonderful patriotic barns on your
website - but none in Virginia.
Does anyone know of any patriotic barns in Virginia
with a U.S. Flag???
I would really appreciate it if you could point me
in the right direction - perhaps someone that I could
contact in Virginia. Thanks for any assistance in
advance. Fantastic website!!!

What a great website! Thanks for sharing these

all of us. I'll be sending this site on to some of my
family and friends and know they'll love it as much as
I do!

What a wonderful website! I just finished looking
at your old gas station pictures, and they were great!
I am empoyed by the Tupelo Automobile Museum in Tupelo
Mississippi, and we have an impressive display of gas
and oil signs on our walls, along with a goob's garage
that looks similar to some of your pictures. Also
there are 111 vehicles arranged in chronological
order, so as to portray the progression of the
automobile industry through the decades. Another 50
will be added as they are restored! Take a look and
see this terrific tribute to the industry!
Thank You, Janice

the same desire feel free to e-mail me.

gave us some great ideas.
I'm also looking for barn-raising info.

I LOVE THIS WEBSITE SO MUCH !! Awesome job !! I was
wondering if it wasnt too much trouble, maybe you
could make a "Scott Hagan" section. This would be very
useful. He is out on his own painting some fantastic
barns now, and having them scattered in
"advertisement", "patriotic", etc etc etc makes it
vevy hard and near impossible to find them all. Having
one source where they all appear on a list together
would be awesome.

The Picture of the Phillips Covered Bridge in Parke

I remember parking it there in July 2004.
I vaguely remembering someone taking the
picture.
Is it possible i could contact the photographer so
i could get a copy to enlarge?

I've been trying to locate some pictures of a
covered bridge in Peepytown, PA. The bridge was lost
in the 1972 hurricane. My wife used to play on the
bridge as a child. I have searched archives all over
the country but cannot locate any photos of that
bridge before it's loss. The Bridge was located in
Peepytown (Bears Forge), PA just out side of East
Berlin.
Is there any chance anyone would have any photos of
that bridge or maybe suggest where I can go next to
look.

I am purchasing a site which has a classic old red
barn and do not a great deal of money but would like
to preserve the barn (the farmer is planning to
bulldoze it). What does it cost to preserve a barn
just to the point of keeping it from falling down--it
doesn't necessarily have to have a function other than
being safe to walk inside.

I am really enjoying your web-site. We are covered
bridge nuts, so we've seen many of them, but still
have a lot to go. Also, we're fond of lighthouses, and
try to see them whenever possible. Thanks for the work
it must have taken.

What a wonderful site!! I grew up on a small farm
in Darke County. We have lived in Columus and make a
trip back home every other week or so and I always
look at all of the barns on our way home. I have
watched a few just fall down from neglect.

Thanks for the great site. My great-great

Mill). It's thrilling to know that others can now
appreciate this heritage through sites like yours!
Thanks!

I'm an 8th grader at Warm Springs Middle School in
Morgan County, West Virginia. I'm doing my social
studies fair project on the Mail Pouch Barns,
specifically those in West Virginia. I found some
information that mentioned a particular Mail Pouch
barn in Randolph Co., WV that has the word chew in
blue, which was a "mistake" by painter Harley Warrick.
Would anyone out there have a picture of that
particular barn that they could share with me. Thanks!

I just wanted to pass along how much I like the web
site. I have had for many years the idea of creating a
web site here in Indiana specifically devoted to barns
around the state. Your idea of including the GPS
coordinates was of particular interest to me and
caused me to look deeper into how that information
could be used with aerial photography. I am currently
playing around with mapping software that shows the
items as an icon, then when clicked with the mouse,
launches the windows photo viewer to show the
pictures. The GPS coordinates and other related info
exists in a database. I obtained from a local county
government files that contains 6" resolution aerial
photography with embedded GPS data. As an experiment,
I took the coordinates off your web site of the Adams
Mill in Carroll Co., Indiana. I punched them into my
software and it zoomed to the location of the mill. I
could see in the photo: the mill, dam, and roads. I
have also discovered that historical aerial data is
available for some counties and this gives the ability
to "look back in time" at developed areas. Thanks for
the inspiration.

a web site in Ohio....GREAT JOB!!
