Ott Family Log Cabin: Our latest acquisition was dismantled on Memorial Day 2000, and moved from section 11 in Hatton Township. Here Louie and Emma Ott raised their 18 children with a spirit of self-reliance and personal responsibility. Emma did not live to see her sixties. What little time Louie and Emma had exclusive of direct child rearing was spent on meeting the daily needs for food, clothing and shelter. Here household and outdoor skills are demonstrated. Rug making, weaving, cooking, gardening, butter and soap making, Axemanship, blacksmithing, shooting, sawing, carpentry, and cider making. Watch for special events. |
