Property maps, 1895.

Both maps are drawn at a scale of 1:100 in. The larger map depicts the entire 1500 acre farm including clearings, woods, creeks, town lines, railroads and existing Shaker buildings. The plan is attributed to John Young (M. Am Soc. C. E.) and Stanley Shepard, Transitman and Draughtsman. The plan is rendered in charcoal, ink, and water color. The smaller map shows a 587 acre section of the property including existing Shaker buildings.
