The back of the house had been added
onto with a masonry addition. This was used as living quarters for
an Austrian family (see burnt roast
story, below) in 1907. It may have been built for a servant or rented out.
This room was covered and built out
as far as the driveway.

The masonry addition was used as a laundry room when we bought it. The back of the house in this picture was the back porch that had been enclosed.

height of the masonry wall was over 10 feet, with only 3 feet to house.
