I E-mailed the Missouri History Museum about the house I bought, and they responded with a very long E-mail and lots of links to material on the very house! Much appreciated. Lots to sift through...
@mandy no! That's an idea. I have seen polio records for the residents at one period, but a more thorough investigation would be interesting. It's another of these old houses that were not built premium, with interesting shortcuts…
@mandy …and lots of people living here at once. We've built theories about it, would be fun to confirm. Let's see… My home is 135 years old. Guess 150 years is the next greatest milestone. ☺️
