Regarding Barnhart-Bolenbaugh House. Excerpt from the National Register nomination:
John H. Barnhart acquired this parcel £rom the Christian Gayman heirs in 1908. It is believed he built the house soon after. The house remained in his name until his death in 1932 when his widow, Alice and grandsons, Robert B. Bolenbaugh and John W. Bolenbaugh, inherited it. John and Robert were sons of Wilmont (Wilmot?) Bolenbaugh and oral history states that this was Wilmont Bolenbaugh's residence, although he never has title to the property. John and Robert were born in the house. After Wilmont's death c. 1945 the house was apparently a rental property. John Bolenbaugh was the owner when sold out of the family in 1969
