The Hidden Legacy Of The Abandoned Farmhouse That I Found In Long Island, New York
I discovered an abandoned farmhouse built in 1860 on Long Island, New York, with centuries of history and treasures left behind. Antique furniture, photographs, and paintings were scattered around and throughout. After some research, I discovered that due to a legal battle between the former family and current owners. Things have been left for decades in a state of decay.
Step inside the historical century-old farmhouse in Long Island, and take a look at the legacies left there.

Farm house? I don't know, but to me, it doesn't look like a farm house - it's too grand. And there is nothing in the interior shots that would point to those folks as being farmers. That aside, it's sad that someone's personal belongings were just left there. But people die all the time who have no friends or kin left in the world. Their loneliness is so sad.
American farmhouses sometimes look like this, especially those established pre-Depression. The family might have been grand before things went sideways and they had to abandon. I used to find farmhouses like this in the 1970s and 80s when so many farmers went belly up where I lived in Delaware.

The photographs and documents would be the greatest treasure for anyone tracing their family history. It is such a shame when things like that are allowed to become lost.
