Carol,

Connie Beachy is actually responsible for the picture of the Johnson
structures. She gave me permission to post them.

I've looked around the web for images of the building, and am surprised not
to have found any yet. Do any of the museums in the area have any pictures?

Who owns that property now? I'm a bit surprised not to find it protected as
a state historical site.

John
