<p>The Henry Law Farm Historic District is a farmstead located at the junction of Reed Road and Plum Run Road near Tappan Lake in Harrison County, Ohio, United States. It was named a historic district and added to the National Register in 2002.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Henry Law, a teacher originally from County Tyrone in Northern Ireland, emigrated to Harrison County in 1826 with his father and brother. Once settled he began his life as a farmer and raised cattle and sheep, as well as a multitude of crops. He met and married the former Elizabeth McMillan, also from Ireland.</p><br>
<p>Soon after their 1839 wedding, the Laws moved into a log cabin farmhouse at the source of Plum Run in Monroe Township, and in 1846 they relocated to the present property. They were the parents of eleven children, all of whom survived into adulthood, and of whom the oldest son (fourth oldest child) was John Quincy Law. John inherited the farm when his father died in 1869, and expanded the house when he added a kitchen in the downstairs and a living room and two bedrooms in the upstairs. John married Ella Scott, who was the grand daughter of Brigadier General Samuel Scott, a veteran of the War of 1812 and daughter of Josiah Scott and Rachel Vance Scott, who was a descendant of the Vans family from Dirleton Castle in Scotland and Laird Barnbarroch. The couple would raise six children.</p><br>
<p>John Quincy followed in his fathers footsteps and became a teacher, and later a member of the school board. He also served on the Board of Directors at the Dennison National Bank. When John Quincy died in 1927 the property passed to his third child, Frank Vance Law, but he didn&#39;t take title until 1931. Frank resided at the home until his death in 1956, and the property passed into the possession of his sister Eliza Rachel Law (Lida) and his brother Jay Quincy. Lida died shortly thereafter in 1958, and Jay became the sole owner.</p><br>
<p>Jay worked the land until his death in 1964, when he named his niece, Ella Virginia Reed Huss, as the heir of the Law Farm. Ella maintained the home and assisted in the formation of the Law Reed Huss Farm Foundation in 2001, and also aided in the petition to place the farm on the National Register, which it did so in the same year as her death, in 2002. The entry also placed the Ernest and Lena Reed Farm, as well as 280 acre of land on the register as well. The farm is still functional and raises crops as well as Shorthorn and Angus cattle.</p><br>
<p>The Dennison High School is located in Dennison, Ohio. The property was listed on the National Register on 2006-02-01.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The building was designed by J.K. Griffin, an architect from Canton in the Gothic style. The building was completed in 1928 and was known as Angel&#39;s Castle, named for William Hiram Angel, the superintendent.</p><br>
<p>The school began an experimental program in the 1930s for "special need students" under teacher Helen Laizure Norris. This "school within a school" was designated as Primrose School and received national attention due to its many innovations. It continued until 1954.</p><br>
<p>When the schools of the area consolidated, the building was used as the junior high school until it became an intermediate school. The school still functions in this sense today.</p><br>
<h2>Exterior</h2><br>
<p>The red brick building dominates its site. The school sits on top of a small hill towering over the road below. The property is lined by a stone retaining wall with a flight of stairs rising to the main entrance. The main entrance rests in an arched alcove. The surrounding facade is made up of stone and projects away from the main bulk of the building. At each corner of the projection is a rounded buttress. The stone ends in a decorative entablature. Central windows light the interior and are located in a recessed panel and are surrounded by two brick towers capped by stone projections.</p><br>
<p>Plaquemine Lock State Historic Site, located in Plaquemine, Louisiana, commemorates an early example of hydraulic engineering design and the historic significance of Bayou Plaquemine, an important navigable waterway that was once a distributary of the Mississippi River. Bayou Plaquemine promoted settlement beginning in the 18th century and helped the area economically by providing an access route between southwestern Louisiana  and the Mississippi via the Atchafalaya Basin.</p><br>
<p>The lock itself was designed by Colonel George Washington Goethals of the United States Army Corps of Engineers, who later served as chief engineer of the construction of the Panama Canal Lock, and went on to be the Canal Zone&#39;s first governor. Plaquemine Lock was opened on April 9, 1909, after 14 years of construction. When it was built, Plaquemine Lock was the highest freshwater lift of any lock in the world. The lock initially utilized a gravity-flow principle until pumps were installed years later.</p><br>
<p>The lock was closed after 52 years of service in 1961 due to increased river traffic and the demand for a larger lock, which opened thereafter in Port Allen. The Plaquemine Lock structure was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972. Today, the Gary James Hebert Memorial Lockhouse serves as an on-site museum and visitors center. It is named for the man who led the way to help preserve the Lock site, which today covers 19 acre.</p><br>

<h2>Buildings</h2><br>
<p>Three buildings comprise the complex: the brownstone Gothic Revival parish church; the parish house, formerly a school; and a convent. The church was built in 1848–52 to the design of renowned Brooklyn architect Patrick C. Keely. The engineer for its construction was US Army Lieutenant William S. Rosecrans, who would rise to the rank of Major General in the American Civil War. "On June 14, 1849, Bishop Bernard O&#39;Reilly consecrated the building, committing it to the patronage of the Holy Name of Mary, Our Lady of the Isle."</p><br>
<p>In 1865 the school was built directly east of the church, and also was designed by Keely. During the 1880s, the church erected two more buildings, neither of which were included in the nomination for the National Register of Historic Places. A convent was built in 1880–81, designed by local architect Dudley Newton. In 1991 that building was moved from its site at Spring and Gidley Streets to its current location at 398 Thames Street, where it serves as the Admiral Fitzroy Inn. In 1886 Dudley also designed the rectory that burned in 1921. A new rectory, designed by Ambrose J. Murphy, was erected on the same site in 1924–5. In 1937 architect John F.

<p>In 1918, the building&#39;s name was changed to the Brumder Building in response to anti-German sentiment during World War I, and the statue was removed discreetly in the night. Efforts to trace the fate of the statue, which was stored for a while by sculptor Cyril Colnik, have proven futile, with one theory claiming that it was melted down for scrap during World War II, and another speculating that it may have gone to the Smithsonian Institution, and possibly still be there.</p><br>
<p>Seventeen years after Brumder&#39;s death in 1910, the printing presses were removed from the basement levels of the building, giving the city its first underground parking garage. The name was changed back to the Germania Building after a significant renovation in 1981. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in July 1983.</p><br>
<p>In 1968 the Brumder Building was the scene of a significant protest against the war in Vietnam. Nine Milwaukee draft boards maintained their offices on the second floor. On the evening of September 24 fourteen activists entered and removed about 10,000 files. Those files were then carried outside across Wells Street, to the area now known as Postman Square, and burned.</p><br>
<p>In early 2007, the building was sold to a Milwaukee-based investor group led by Santino "Sonny" Bando, for slightly more than $4 million (approx. $44/sq. ft.) from a suburban-Chicago-based investment trust. The building had suffered a decline in tenants and a foreclosure sale in 1990 but was, at the time of the sale, 95% occupied, according to Bando. One of the reasons Bando cited for buying the building was the fact that he and his investors also own another of downtown Milwaukees historic office buildings, the Iron Block Building (205 E. Wisconsin Ave.), which they bought in 2004. Bando said he likes those types of buildings "because you cant really build them anymore."</p><br>

<p>The Col. James Graham House is a historic log cabin located on West Virginia Route 3 in Lowell, West Virginia. It was built in 1770 as a home for Col. James Graham, the first settler of Lowell, and his family. It was later the site of an Indian attack on the Graham family in 1777. The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places on March 16, 1976. The Graham House is the oldest multi-story log cabin in West Virginia. It is currently operating as a museum.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>James Graham and his family built the cabin in 1770 after migrating to the area from elsewhere in Virginia. As the Grahams were the first permanent settlers in the region, the Graham House became the first established home in what is now Summers County. The log house, with a 25 by exterior, was significantly larger than other pioneer cabins of the period. The Graham family settled into a life of farming in the home upon its completion. In 1777, Native Americans attacked the Graham House, killing Col. Grahams son John, a neighbor of the Grahams named McDonald, and a young slave boy as well as kidnapping Col. Grahams daughter Elizabeth. The family did not successfully ransom Elizabeth until 1785.</p><br>
<p>The Graham House remained in the Graham family until 1860. After 1860, several other families inhabited the cabin, including Col. Wilson Lively&#39;s family and Mr. and Mrs. Lewis E. Barickman. The last residents of the house (from 1976 - 1986) were Eileen and Bill Muhly, Jr. and their six children. The youngest two, twins Mary Elizabeth and James Arthur Bertram were born while the family resided there. The house is currently owned by the Graham House Preservation Society and operated as a museum.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Graham House is notable as being a particularly large house compared to other log cabins of the period. The exterior of the house measures 25 ft by 28 ft, and the cabin consists of two floors and an attic, including a 12 ft ceiling. The house is built of poplar, walnut, and oak logs, with stones used as additional supports. Large stone chimneys are located at either end of the house. The house was likely built with a single door and no windows, but an additional door and several windows were added at a later date. The first floor consists of a single room, and at one point was split into three rooms; the second floor has three rooms. The house&#39;s original outbuildings were eventually replaced by additions on the north side of the house, the latest of which was built in the 1970s and includes bathing and kitchen areas.</p><br>
<h2>Museum</h2><br>
<p>The Graham House is currently operated as a private museum, with tours given during summer months on weekends. The house is also used as a venue for community events such as dinners, festivals, and reunions.</p><br>
<p>On the same property as the Graham House lies the Saunders One Room School House Museum. The school house, while not an original school building, allows visitors to see an example of a one-room school house. The property also houses a barn which contains many pieces of old farm equipment.</p><br>
