Subject

Farms--Ohio; Agriculture--Ohio; Farm life

Description

This sketch from Caldwell's Atlas of 1873 focuses on the farm of A.H. and B.C. Byers, located on the west side of Christmas Run south of Wayne Avenue. It was located so close to downtown Wooster that one can even see the steeples of churches in the background. As Wooster developed, farms such as this one were sold and subdivided into lots.
