NOTES
Additional Information:This grouping was previously surveyed in 1993 and mapped on City engineers Map, 10-1-92. This grouping of buildings--dairy barn, milk house and silo--is located on the east side of Calhoun Road, across the road from the Ruby residence and other outbuildings. While the west side buildings were sold to a developer in January 2005, the Ruby family still retains these buildings. A 'site file' exists for this property. It contains additional information such as correspondence, newspaper clippings, or historical information. It is a public record and may be viewed in person at the Wisconsin Historical Society, Division of Historic Preservation-Public History. Other records associated with this building include: House (AHI #7785), Bank Barn #2 (AHI #105027), Bank Barn #1 (AHI #138939), Garage #2 (AHI #138940), Smokehouse (AHI #138941), Pumphouse (AHI #138942), Fireplace (AHI #138943), and Milk Processing Facility (AHI #138944).
