Bob Zybach: And what was that barn, was that the barn that went to this house here?
Charlie Olson: That barn went to that house up there.
Bob Zybach: What did they call this house, was this the Moore house?
Charlie Olson: That's the house that Moores were in. But they didn't call it that, because there was so many, there was probably seven people that lived in that house and owned this place.
Bob Zybach: Was it the Modie house? Or Modic?
Charlie Olson: Who?
Bob Zybach: Modie, or Modic?
Charlie Olson: Modie never had it. I never knew a Modie.
Bob Zybach: Well, he was here in the 1840's. I don't know why he left.
Charlie Olson: I was out of here in 1940.
Bob Zybach: 1840.
Charlie Olson: Oh, oh.
Bob Zybach: I'm tiying to go back to some of this stuff This house up here was an old donation land claim. And so it was before Moores and this was the road coming through and it hit the old road that you said went down the valley here, went down this side of the creek, is that correct?
Charlie Olson: Well, I would tell you if you would let me.
Bob Zybach: Okay.
Charlie Olson: But the road came down from that hill and right at the bottom of that hill it could go around the black smith's shop and leave the black smith's shop on the right.
Bob Zybach: Back there then?
Charlie Olson: Yeah, you go around that black smith shop and leave it on the right and on the other side was a barn. I go through between the black smith's shop and the barn and come over on one road and go down here or I could right between that same barn that I just spoke about and another big barn on the other side. And go right down another road and come together down here.
Bob Zybach: So there were two roads that came out.
Charlie Olson: There were two roads that came out here, one was on that side of this little stream, that was a pretty good sized creek in those days, one on that side and one on this
