Notes
  • Written documentation includes outbuildings.
  • Significance: This is an excellent example of a typical Pennsylvania German family farm that has developed continuously since the middle of the eighteenth century, The well-planned farm ensemble (termed die Bauerei) includes a mid-nineteenth century log house, a large bank barn, and a full complement of traditional outbuildings. The farm is located in an area settled in the eighteenth century by German immigrants, which provides a good example of a homogeneous Pennsylvania German community.
