- Description:
- Northwest of Durand, 1917-1918. Home of Philemon Ogletree replaced a two-story log house that had been built in the early 1830s on a stagecoach route. It is said to be one of the earliest frame houses in the area and was one of the few to be painted. Because it had three rooms upstairs and three rooms downstairs, it was called the "three-up and three-down" house. Mr. Ogletree's son, James Fletcher Ogletree, and his grandson, James Frank Ogletree, also lived in the house. The automobile parked in front is a 1917 or 1918 Oldsmobile.
