Lyn you have two options that I see in looking at present pictures of homes and buildings that you are thinking about. One is to search this web site, and many have been posted since 2004. However, your best quick view is to type in the full address and zip 47201 at the web site that is below. For example if you want to view 2403 Gilmore Street Columbus Indiana 47201 then type that full address in the block shown when you call up the below site. If it is just a road then type in for example Beam Road Columbus Indiana 47201 and navigate the streets shown. Hope this helps you view Columbus at almost any address you recall. Go here to type address and navigate:www.vpike.com/

I remember the property at Rocky Ford and Marr Rd with the scary face on the marker stone.I know it was there in the 60s because I remember being a kid and it scared the willies out of me.It was fun to make up stories about it but I think the real story was the property owner was upset about drunks and knuckleheads driving around on his property whether by accident or on purpose.
It got demolished at some point by another knucklehead.In the 90s one of the Breedloves bought the property and I believe he commissioned a new marker complete with sculpture-painting.Sadly,the newer face just looks goofy,where the original one I recall as pretty frightening,in a sort of Gene Simmons bat-demon way.
The stone is pretty famous,I know I've seen photos of it around the web,but sadly again,only the newer one.If I can find a link I will put it up here.
