I have a photograph of the house in the Ulster-American Folk Park, I was
told that the people who lived there were relatively well off in comparison
to others. And it certainly whilst not being grand was better furnished than
some of the more simple cottages.

I can put the photo on the Co Tyrone web-site, later today if you like.
