Abandonment Issues: Elmvale Stone House

Elmvale Stone House

I would opine that a family was started here, a young Johnathon or Jane may have taken their first steps right where I stood to photograph their baby toys. What became of Jonathon and Jane, or whatever their names were, may never be known. 2004 stands out as a probable abandonment date.

When I photographed this house a couple of years ago there was a sign in the window saying the place was quarantined or something odd like that. Maybe just a scare tactic, but it was pretty strange.
