Harold Gibson's Barn

(Photograph copyright 2012 by Dan Routh)

Many of the old buildings around our community Grays Chapel, North Carolina have seen many uses. Harold Gibson's barn/shed started life as Mr. Pugh's store.

Joye Coley said...: Dan, thanks for posting this picture. I wondered who built this barn. Which Mr. Pugh had a store there? My great grandfather Rankin Lineberry had a store somewhere in the area, maybe across 22.; January 22, 2012 at 2:01 PM
Dan Routh Photography, Inc said...: I'm not really sure Joye. Still trying to figure it out. Harold says his place was a "Pugh" place but I don't know where it fits in. I'll work on it.; January 22, 2012 at 2:10 PM

Bio

Although my photography business is based out of Greensboro, I am a Randolph County native and live on my family's 150 acre beef cattle farm on Routh Road in Grays Chapel. A lot of my photography is done near my home, featuring family, friends, neighbors and local scenes. I grew up as the son of a dairy farmer/teacher and worked on the dairy until I left for UNC and a degree in Cultural Anthropology, and then Photography at Randolph Community College. My wife and I have two sons (and 2 daughter-in-laws) and we still work the farm, raising cattle and chickens, along with an extensive vegetable garden.
