Photographer: Unkown
Taken: Circa Pre/1925
Caption: Actual John D. Rockefeller Boyhood Home
Additional Description: Photo of the original house that burned down in 1924. People in front are unknown. Local anecdote or story is that while the road was being worked on in this area, convicts from nearby Auburn prison were being housed in this house (no longer owned by Rockefellers). Hence implying that the fire somehow originated by or during the time of those temporary residents.
