[W-,l()1<WA1 AND ARCHITECTURAL IMPORTANCE:
The west wing was originally a corn crib. The house was
extensively altered in 1947 . These magnificent farm
buildings are the heart of a large operating farm.
Altho this large farm was Tabor on the 1858 and 1873 maps ,
this house seems to have been constructed later adjacent to
the original Tabor house which apparently is no longer
standing. The Seth Brown Tabor house (OR 69) is the same
family.
