An old family photo - Edgewood Farms

This is a newspaper clipping showing the home of my Great Grandparents, J.W. and Anna Bivens

i found this paper in some old photos i was going through.  i realize that it's hard to see, but you get the idea.  Grandmother was born in this house.  This picture was taken sometime in the first decade of the 20th Century.  The house itself went through some modifications. In this picture, there is a lot of Victorian trim work on the exterior.  All of that was eventually taken down.  The slender columns on the front porch were replaced with thicker, less ornate ones.  The part of the front porch that sticks out the most was eventually screened in, then the screens were taken down after the family sold the home.  It was a lovely home in its heyday and would be a lovely home again!
