Thanks to Carlese Carroll and Michele Finley for the identification. Michele writes: This is the old William Henry Carroll farmhouse. Guy Harbuck owns this home now, and his grandparents used to live there too. It was originally built by my Great-Great Grandpa William “Henry” Carroll. His brother-in-law, Henry Daniel Vaughn aka H.D. Vaughn (who was on the First Grand Jury in Ben Hill County on April 1, 1907) helped him build his house. GG Grandpa Henry Carroll lived in his house with his second wife, Ella J. Carroll, until he died of pneumonia on December 15, 1941. He was 87 years old.
Can anyone tell me what county/town this home is located?
Leslie, it’s between Fitzgerald and Rochelle. It’s in Ben Hill County, but not far from the Wilcox County line.
Thank you so much for the reply. I actually typed my last name wrong. It’s Harbuck. My husband is Mack (Bucky) Harbuck. I am curious if there is any relation.
Hey Brian! This is the old William Henry Carroll farmhouse. Guy Harbuck owns this home now, and his grandparents used to live there too. It was ORIGINALLY built by my Great-Great Grandpa William “Henry” Carroll. His brother-in-law, Henry Daniel Vaughn aka H.D. Vaughn (who was on the First Grand Jury in Ben Hill County on April 1, 1907) helped him build his house. GG Grandpa Henry Carroll lived in his house with his second wife, Ella J. Carroll, until he died of pneumonia on December 15, 1941. He was 87 years old. We LOVE your pictures, Brian!
I was in school in Fitzgerald with a Johnny Harbuck. Was he part of this family?
This home was owned by Claude and Halloween Harbuck. Their grandson, Guy Harbuck now owns it and rents it out. He lives in Atlanta now.
I’m glad you finally looked at my pictures Carlese! I thought I had a picture of Bethlehem, but I’ll check and see. Momma and Daddy said they knew some Harbucks, but they’re somewhat sketchy on them. I have got to call you…maybe I’ll see you at Relay for Life Tomorrow. Otherwise, I will call you SOON! Love Ya, Brian
I’d like to own this farmhouse.
What a great porch!
