This is the home of Leaone Foutz Carson. It has an interesting in-teresting history it was built by Eric Bengtson from Sweden. He and his family emigrated to America in the late 1860s and immediately acquired land and began to build this home. Years later a son-in-law, August Warnick moved into this home and added two more brick rooms. Later the Fred Foutz family occupied it and then the Charles Carsons and two generations of the Floy Taylors. In memory of this home, the following poem was written writ-ten by Leaone Foutz Carson. Time was when the homemade bricks were new, Hand fashioned and dried in the sun By a builder who crossed many waters and lands For his religion, and a new life began. He was proud of this house with it's gabled roof and a porch that was shady and wide, With it's fashionable corniced front It becokoned strangers and friends come inside. We want your history of the home that has meant so much in the lives of your family.
