I wonder how old that log cabin you photographed is? It does look like an oldie. Recently I've been looking into my roots. My great great great grandpa Henry Jackson Brandenburg was born 1827 in Union County Indiana. He married my great great great grandma who was a Lydia Tempelton and she was also born in Union County, IN in 1833. Looking into all that I find out the Tempelton's we're some of the very first settlers in Union County Indiana and in the lawn of the Courthouse of Union county they preserved an old cabin like the one in your picture and it's called the Templeton cabin erected in 1805. I have to wonder if my ancestors may have been familiar with that old cabin in Liberty, Indiana?. https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Templeton_Log_Cabin_in_Liberty.jpg
Yeah there's not a lot of info online about it, but Liberty Indiana is where my ancestors seem to settle for a while.We pass that when we go to Brookville lake.
