Mowry-Keach House (late 18th century, ca 1824, 1920): An unusual building comprising two unit s joined side by side and an ell at the rear. Eddy Keach acquired the property in 1824 and probably built the northern section, which was used as a tavern for a number of years. Daniel S. Mowry purchased the building in 1831. The 1870 map shows it as a store and
post office and by 1911 the south part was a dwelling and the north part a harness shop.

Visit Instructions:
To post a log to an existing U.S. Post Office waymark, you will need to post a picture of the front of the building, with the name of the post office in the background if that is possible.
A description of your Post Office is required, such as when it was built, history, outstanding or unique features, population of the city or town, just do a quick internet search and find an interesting bit of information about the city or town and add it to the long description, to make it more interesting. Even just adding in the population of the area can give others an idea of how many people this post office serves. This description should be at least three sentences.
If your Post Office has any unusual or unique features that you feel others would enjoy viewing, additional pictures are always welcome.
Including your gps device in the picture is not necessary, but wouldn't be cause for disapproval, as long as all other details of your log are acceptable.
