Date Original	1993
Subject - Local Places	Monticello Township
Notes	The Barnett-McCoy house (ca. 1852, JCM JCM1993.1.2378 a-g) succumbed to development pressure during the survey period. The roughly 13'; x 30'; home was constructed from square walnut logs cut with a circular saw, probably at a nearby mill. Typical of the size and style of homes the Shawnee built in the area, the small one-story structure (with an upper half story or attic) was part of the large Mill Creek settlement in Monticello Township, an area favored by the Shawnee because of nearby woodlands and spring water. This structure eventually became part of Woodsonia Farm, owned by Woodson McCoy. Address written on photograph sleeve was 6015 K-7 HWY. For historic views of Woodsonia Farm, see JCM1994.057.001-.021. For associated structures photographed during the HP survey, see JCM1994.016.1540, JCM1994.016.1542, JCM1994.016.1543, and JCM1994.016.1546.
