    Notes:

    From authors FB page Cobden of the Past, Dec 12, 2020
    Local folks will have seen the unveiling of the house on the corner of Hwy 17 and Dixon St.
    I for one was surprised to see the square timber home beneath the siding. In the original survey of the village into lots in 1876, there was no Dixon St., and this property was part of a Manor Reserve A which extended up to Gould St. (As seen in one of the aerial photos of Cobden posted on Nov 21, 2019). The reserve was later subdivided into lots c1895 but houses were not built immediately.
    Charles & Pearl Kohlsmith (Granny Kohlsmith to many) purchased this property in 1946 from Russel Boyle (who bought & sold properties). Part of the property was sold to Merril & Bertha Kohlsmith in 1951 and they built the home next to Charles & Pearl (Merril?s parents) on Dixon St. An article about Granny Kohlsmith?s salt and pepper collection was posted on this FB page, Mar 2, 2019.
    It?s not clear from the land records who originally lived on this property or when the home was built. I suspect because of the later years that this property became available, this vintage timber home may have been moved to this location. I stand to be corrected!
    Look at the depth of the bottom log on the side view. It would have been a good sized tree to create that log (as well as some strong arms).
