The house is in three distinct sections. To the left was the smoke house and wash house/woodshed, dated by Lorraine Roth as possibly 1858.The middle section was a summer kitchen. The part on the right, a storey and a half stone structure, was the Doddyhaus. These buildings were behind the two-storey log house house occupied first by Nicholas and Anna (Ernst) Lichti, followed by Nicholas and Barbara (Schmidt) Lichti, and the Rudolph Kropf family.
