Addison Ford Barn at Its Original Site, Dearborn, Michigan, June 1929
Add to SetSummary
In 1928, Henry Ford acquired the late-1800s barn located on land once owned by Addison Ford, his second cousin. Henry had the structure dismantled and moved to Greenfield Village. Here it was modified and used for non-historic purposes--it accommodated stalls for some twenty riding horses. The barn was razed in 1993. This photograph documents the barn prior to its move to Greenfield Village.
