[QUOTE/]This map from McDude’s collection shows a farm. Perhaps it has something to do with that? Making either a cistern or windmill would be a good candidate.

.....ah!...I came across some information on the Nestledown Farm when I was putting the Weirs thread together. Let me dig into my 'archives' and see what I can come up with. It DOES look like a railroad trestle, however, the railroad was a mile or so away from there. Saunders (or the 'Gilford' stop)would have been the nearest station (somewhere ner the present vicinity of Bertha Mae's) in one direction or Weirs in the other direction.

I'll get back to you!

PS - I can never seem to get the hang of the "QUOTE" feature.
PPS - I thought it looked like some kind of primeval altar for sacrificing young nubile virgins to the Lake God...????
