Bob Zybach: Just a little homesite?
James Hanish: Just a little homesite.
Bob Zybach: We just passed an orchard back there on the right would that have been the Tandy's orchard?
James Hanish: Well, I couldn't tell you.
Bob Zybach: Ok. Then the Tandys would they have been right in. . . to our right here?
James Hanish: Yes, this is where the Byrd house is right in here, that big oak base, that's where the Byrd homestead was, and the Tandys was over the other way.
Bob Zybach: Between Byrd and the creek?
James Hanish: Yes.
Bob Zybach: Ok, and then the Byrd ranch went out this way?
James Hanish: Yes, it extended all the land from there.

Bob Zybach: On the right who was the next person?
James Hanish: There wasn't any on the right. There's no houses on the right until you get to the road that goes out to the highway.
