Henry and Willie Lou Crouse bought the land on 14 Nov 1923 from Walter and Nannie Bailey and sold the 156.75 acres to August and Lillian Kozlovsky on 15 May 1950. It appears that the Baileys bought it on 10 June 1919 from James & Mary Archer who had bought it on 9 Mar 1914 from Skipwith Coale. Coale had acquired it in two parcels in 1906. August Kozlovsky died in October 1981 and Lillian sold part of this land to Jay & Mary Gernand in 2002, who now own 102 acres. She had apparently sold off many smaller pieces earlier. The land is described in a plat which can be found at: http://plato.mdarchives.state.md.us/msa/stagser/s1500/s1529/cfm/dsp_unit.cfm?c ounty=ha&qualifier=S&series=1246&unit=8904&p_ds_value=1&p_ms_value=0 User id = plato, paswword = plato# I have not found any indication of an old house on the property, but it might be on a part that was sold separately (not on this plat). Do you have any idea of where the house was relative to this plat? Mike Pierce

Bettie - I'm headed out that way this afternoon and will go right by Clermont Mills Road. Will take a detour and see if I can find an old house on the road. I'll take the camera just in case. Jo
