Interior of the Sharp log home northeast of Huxley, Iowa. The cabin is one of two log homes--the other being the Bauge cabin which now [2003] stands in McFarland Park--still standing in Story County when this photo was taken in 1986 by Farwell Brown. It shows the flooring which was milled at Swede's Point, now Madrid, in Boone County. This log cabin was built in 1854 by Adrew Bard. It was occupied by Margaret Sharp, his granddaughter, from 1901 to 1981, and then by her cousin, Roy Thomas.
