I found an 1863 church that had a school next to it on the 1870 maps. I checked Google earth and found the church, but the spot where the school was is now a grassy field. I went out with my dad on Saturday and after a little searching, we found the owner of the property.
It obviously has been hunted before, but they missed one and I found it.
