Description

Keim House 1/2 page halftone image from photo, with paragraph of descriptive caption; published in "The Dutchman," Winter 1954, page 22. The 2d story doorway did not open to a 2d story porch, as suggested in the photo caption, but led to a balcony or “gallery”, which was reproduced in the 2012-2013 restoration campaign. Issue also contains similar entry for Keim Cabin {n}. See KCTX3--1002.01.054. {n} now considered a farmstead "ancillary" structure built contemporaneous with the 1753 farmhouse, not an earlier "settler's cabin" (Pendleton, Philip, "Oley Valley Heritage, The Colonial Years: 1700-1775," p. 91, caption and pages 90-92, text).
