ca 1900

In 1860 the farm and barn passed to the hands of Charles Miller who owned it until about 1903.  Charles Miller died in 1898 and his son, Benjamin, continued to own the farm for several years.  It was probably during the Miller ownership that the cupola was added to the horsebarn.  It was probably during this time also that the large door at the gable end roof peak and hay track was added.
