Staley Home
This photo was taken around the turn of the century; it was the home of Archibald Staley and his family, built in the 1880s on the original site (Lot 23, Old Survey) of his father's home, Martin Staley. It still stands and is now used as a summer home by some of Archibald's descendants from Connecticut.
Thanks to Scott Manning for this photo!
