The Odd Fellows Hall building taken from the yard of the Poor Farm in Gypsum. The Lutheran Church is at the right of the Hall. The cupola on the original building has been removed, a chimney and additional door appear as well (comparing this photo to 2011.006.001). The building has been remodeled to suit the purposes for which it was being used.

A back view of "Kate's place," the Strohm residence in Gypsum [2nd and Eagle Streets]. George Strohm bought the former Poor Farm in 1939 for $5,000. The Poor Farm provided assistance to the elderly, disabled and homeless before Social Security, Medicare, etc., and was situated on land that now is the location for the Town Park and Bertroch subdivision.
