This page, when completed,  will be a photo gallery of objects found in and around the house. Most of

the hundreds of items found have little or no monetary value but are interesting as everyday items that

were used by occupants of the house since 1860.

I've only shown 1 bottle of each kind, although we found several of most of them. The Most common

Kinds: Tabasco Sauce, washing ammonia and canning jars and lids.
