Admiral is an old company! And my grandma had a stove like that big old one. I knew these and that Admiral I remember from in the 50s and early 60s being used.
Very nice old place. Much bigger from the inside than it looked from the front. Chimneys look in great shape. I love the shirt tail wall and the hunting log. Joy's family has certainly made good use of their historic properties. Amazing to see they still own and hold theses places with great regard. We even get Robert's signature move, a look underneath the structure! Great tour. Thank you to Joy for sharing. 👍👍❣️❣️
Don’t know how I missed this one but glad you put it on with your comment. I just had to check it out as I’m a lover for old houses. I thought this was quite interesting with the add ones. But the best part that I loved was the bead board. This place would be so cool if it was restored. But you might tick off a few guys who use it for a hunting lodge. That porch was so big. Great place to sit, drink your sweet tea n watch the world go by. Thanks Robert. Your always bringing us great history. ♥️♥️♥️😊👍👍👍🌟🌟🌟🐶
I would not be surprised to learn that this was originally a two room dog trot house circa 1870's. The front door looks to have been made to fill in the gap. The porch piers appear to be replacements. The "master bedroom" appears to be an early add on which would explain its close proximity to the original detached kitchen. It would take further examination under the house and in the attic to be sure. Interesting house, thanks for the tour.
Robert and Joy, interesting history of the old house. Admiral Appliances have been around since 1934. They were purchased by Maytag in the eighties and were then sold to Whirlpool in 2006 and are only sold at Home Depot.
This house is very similar to my Granny's house in southeast Georgia, only my Granny's house was never painted. Even the front screen doors and knobs were the same. Thank you, Joy, for taking us on tour!
My grandmama had an old stove like that and she was a really good cook. She had seven kids to raise, so she had to learn to cook for a big family. Thank you for showing us this old house. That's really neat. If those walls could talk. 🙂❤👍
We had well water when I was growing up, it was running in the house, we had cold water but no hot water, when we went to my aunts and uncles they had no inside bathrooms and no running water, we had to drop the bucket down the well to get water, all cooking was done on a would burning stove.There was a summer kitchen where all the cooking was done in the summer time so as to not put more heat in the house in summer.I know I couldn’t live like that now but I still have great memories.
The bottom drawer in the oven is a warming drawer, to keep food warm when someone couldn't eat right away. I don't know if they make them anymore now that many have microwaves in their homes.
Shotgun houses don't have hallways, each room has a door going into the next so you can fire a shotgun front to back(front was the parlor, back room was usually the kitchen with the bedrooms in between providing little to no privacy). They were most common in cities like New Orleans on narrow lots.
As a teenager we put a what we thought was an empty hornet's nest & hung it up inside a private lake fishing store that closed for 3 months in winter. When opened back up in spring for fishing season, the store was buzzing with hornets. No more free cokes, peanuts & candy bars for us who help take care of the rental fishing boats & provide live bait for sale.
Very interesting to see. The detached. kitchen was also called a summer kitchen. Cookng was done in there to keep the house cool and to prevent fires in the house. They also canned in there.
Very cool. Coming from a hunting family, I found the shirt tails to be an awesome idea. I never heard of that. I hope she will take those things and the log and put them archival shadow boxes before they decay any further. What a great piece of history to have. I'll definitely share that tradition with my SIL and grandsons, maybe they'll be interested in starting a new hunting tradition.
They built homes to last back then even if it was for seasonal use. Real wood and no plaster walls. If you fixed it up, it could be used by you or rented out to people.
wow that old chimney is awesome.. now i wanna now more about the family of these homes and where there buried.. did u happen to find out where that family has a cemetery at?
I heard Mrs. Joy, forgive me if its actually, “Ms.” Saying that the property originally belonged or was near where Hiram Knowlton lived. Hiram is my fourth great-grandfather and I have always been interested in finding his gave. From the details I have acquired on the internet, it seems that he may be buried somewhere on his property. I am not certain of this, but I do remember you guys going out to a cemetery and showing Ann J. Swindell Knowlton’s grave, who was Hiram’s wife. I would love to hear from you and possibly learn some history about my ancestor.
Hey. From the Talbot County Rockaway Books - “Hiram Knowlton is buried in an unmarked grave by his wife, according to John Knowlton, a great, great grandson, who wrote the author September 16, 1975, and then lived in Americus, Georgia.”
@@AdventuresIntoHistory Have you heard of his son Charles Knowlton, he built mills and other things? I know he built a mill down the road from my house and he managed it until his death
We have hunting clubs/deer clubs all over South Jersey. Each one has it's own clubhouse, and most are historic. They all have a sign out front with the name of the club, sometimes with a logo, and sometimes with the date of founding (some go back to the 1920s). Those clubhouses are all owned by the clubs. I don't quite understand how Joy was able to go in if she's not a member. I get that her father started the club. So I guess that's it. I also find it strange that it doesn't have "real" electricity if it's in use every year by the hunters. That said, it's a really cool old house, and I enjoyed the tour.
That refrigerator should be strapped closed. Kids get in them playing around and if it shuts they can’t get out and suffocate to death. It has happened. Please make safe-just in case…..
shower curtains on the windows - is that a guy thing ? The majority of the old houses (thats alot) in Milwaukee were built in the late 18 hundreds to early 19 hundreds - have beautiful woodwork + hard wood floors. Same in Chicago ..so why are you talking about this shack - for lack of a better word - like its something special.
I watched only because Robert said this video was not getting as many views as a video about another old house. I commented that the word "hunting" put me off and after watching I see I was correct to not watch at first. Animal heads, blood stains on floor, rack where they hung up squirrels, chart of what they killed, how and how old the animal was. Not my cup of tea. The house was sort of interesting. Robert, you owe me.
@@ritacorrieri9172 You suffered seeing more than I did. The second I saw the deer head I exited. I have enough evil 💩 in my head without adding to it. I hope you can erase the images; to me, they always come back. What horrendous people, to be proud of such things. 👎 😢

Thank you young lady
Thank you Robert
Central California watching
The Admiral fridge she mentioned may have been made here in Shelbyville Indiana. There was a Admiral Corp that built stoves and refrigerators here.
They are now sold under the Whirlpool brand at Home Depot.
I remember the Admiral brand of major appliances.
Admiral is an old company! And my grandma had a stove like that big old one. I knew these and that Admiral I remember from in the 50s and early 60s being used.

Thank you, Joy. You have a great family history.
Thanks Robert and joy and blue of course enjoyed. It's fun to think of the people who've lived here and the hunters as well
Ty again Joy..its a very neat old house as Robert said :) and Hiiiii Blue!!
I agree, 1880's and before stlye, I love old houses! Thanks for showing us this one.
A fantastic old place, some special history...
I love exploring these old homes! Thanks for taking us all along with you and Joy.
This house is very similar to my Granny's house in southeast Georgia, only my Granny's house was never painted. Even the front screen doors and knobs were the same. Thank you, Joy, for taking us on tour!
We had that exact GE stove in the 50's, 60's. Mom liked it for the double ovens.
The walls and ceilings are pretty cool.
Awesome old house. Would be nice to restore it and live in it
Yay, Joy is back!!!
My grandmama had an old stove like that and she was a really good cook. She had seven kids to raise, so she had to learn to cook for a big family. Thank you for showing us this old house. That's really neat. If those walls could talk. 🙂❤👍
Great content. Joy's family has deep roots. Great history
We had well water when I was growing up, it was running in the house, we had cold water but no hot water, when we went to my aunts and uncles they had no inside bathrooms and no running water, we had to drop the bucket down the well to get water, all cooking was done on a would burning stove.There was a summer kitchen where all the cooking was done in the summer time so as to not put more heat in the house in summer.I know I couldn’t live like that now but I still have great memories.

My mother had a stove similar to that one instead of the house. This old house is so neat!
very interesting to see. The separate kitchen was called a summer kitchen. Cooking in there kept the house cooler. They also canned in it.
sorry I sent two messages.Did think the first one posted.
Old stoves like that had a deep well bean pot built in the top
How interesting!! Baloo checked it all out and approved 🐶🦌Love from Ky,take care.💞
I love the tour of a great old house. The fridge was something fierce. No cooking pans in the proofing drawer? LOL

Yikes!
Thanks for sharing your family’s history with us Joy. ❤
The front part of house and detatched kitchen was probably original part, the L shape portion was probably a early addition
So fascinating, Thank you for taking the time to video this house and Joy for the tour.
It is interesting that Joy's dad was both an engineer and a hunter; we need more hunters, fishermen, and farmers in the fields of engineering.
joy is amazing

I think that be a stand up freezer with that type of closure.

@@Jared1361 I have not. On another recent video we went to a mill site that was connected to Hiram Knowlton that is not far from his house.

She owns it and leases it.
Admiral brand was built in Galesburg,Il. also
I guess she’s not old enough to know the Admiral brand !
I grew up with a refrigerator like that!
So cool!
We also refer to this type of home as a 'shotgun house'.
I bought a 1910 house and there was a stove in it like that. I wish I still had it.
Metal Roof looks fairly new.
Just Saying-Awesome video
👍🏼
Cool I like this

I would tare those newer additions off

I never stay anywhere that uses dead animals as decoration. I find that cruel and insensitive. Protecting living creatures is much more worthy. 😢
Well, it *is* a hunting cabin…
@@daxxydog5777 You’re right. Just that name would have been all I needed to never go in.
