Bob Billotte writes that this has always been known as the “Home Farm”. Amazingly, it’s located in town.
It was originally owned by Elmer Paulk and remains in the family.

This property is owned by my family in the Elmer Paulk Estate. It has always been called the “Home Farm”. Most original structures are still standing and the barns still have the wagons parked inside.
Thanks Bob. So glad to finally know something about it. It’s a really neat place.
The last house before u got to the abandon farmhouse on Pear rd has a log cabin built in 1865? If you are interested in taking pics msg me
Thanks so much for the comments. I really appreciate them. And yes, that’s me in the M&P. Email me at wbrianbrownATgmailDOTcom and we’ll talk more. Thanks!
Growing up in Southeast Arkansas, structures like this are etched in my boyhood memories and loved like I love my grandparents. You’re doing history a service and I am deeply intrigued by your work. WordPress is a wonderful thing.
Are you by chance the same Brian Brown whose poetry was recently published in M&P Magazine? Forgive me for asking in the context of this website. Even if you are not – I’m an admirer of the photographs and will continuously visit this space with pleasure.
