The property was located in Weller township, Henry County, Illinois. After speaking with a long time neighbor, the corn crib had been taken down sometime before a tornado in the late 1970's came through the area and destroyed the outlying buildings, leaving only the house. The house was not in very good condition and was demolished in the past decade or so to pave the way for additional farm land for the current owner.
Below is a photo of the property as it looks today, taken from the southeast corner on Highway 17 and E 1470th Street looking northwest.
