Photo 96-CRO-20

Comments

This one has me stumped. Based on the flight pattern, the pilot was heading east towards Clinton, taking pictures of the farms on the north side of Hwy X then heads to the farms north of town on the east side of Hwy 140 and keeps going north. I just don't recognize this one...

Location is approximate, based on an overhead image from 1937. It looks like this farm was located just east of the entrance drive to Clinton High School. It is labeled as "Old School Mechanical" on the current map. In this photo from 1964, it looks like many of the buildings from the 1937 image are gone, like the barn that was near where the silo in the photo is, but the shape and location of the house and a few other buildings fit.
