Yard of Dickinson house in background with what would be Trappešs old post office building. This certifies that on March 5, 1909 S.O. Barnes paid his membership dues of $2.60 for the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. These fraternal organizations were once very popular but many local branches like this one disappeared after W.W. II. The Trappe Odd Fellows met in the little building at the foot of the Dickinson house. Photo [above] Courtesy Gretchen Seymour.
