    3. Thank you Angela, The question now is what to do with all the left over pieces. There is probably no way to find anymore. This site has been plowed down for over 80 years. It sits right in the middle of the farm field. The pieces we found in the old fence row is probably all we will ever find. I'm waiting for the descendants to come back to the area to finish the fence. I think we only have 1 stone left to put back up. Then either build on heck of a long base box or a cement slab to put these left over pieces on. They all represent someone from the past. It's frustrating not being able to finish them all The neighbors were sure interesting as we started that project. Some came to tell us funny stories and some came to express their concerns that it would cost the Trustee to much money. They didn't want their Trustee to spend money on this kind of hooie! And he didn't this one was on private property and we haven't charge anyone.
