The engine. it is a 10 hp union, and has been in this family at least 90 years. it was used at one time to move barges of cordwood from near it's present location, to a lime kiln about 5 miles down the Mississippi river. The family knows this because they have a newspaper article talking about the contract to move 500 cords of wood to the kiln. They were my Grandfather's neighbors for about 60 years. |
