I was so surprised to see the "unnamed log school." My husband's great-grandparents lived there using it as a house! (He fought in the Civil War for the Union and was actually saved by Confederate soldiers who (after he was shot) made a tent shelter for him and gave him enough food and water to survive till the Union came to retrieve him several days later. They saved his life. Such was the paradox of war).
Also at the Madison County Historical Complex in Winterset. Built in the 1850s, and later used as a home. Was originally in Douglas Township NW of Winterset.
