Our home is over 100 years old. A couple of years ago, we found a article from the Rockford Register Star with a photograph showing our house and the main street of Monroe Center. The photograph was from the 1890's. Pretty stunning knowing our house was here 80 years before I was even born! Today's picture shows the door to our not-so-old garage. The owners of the house in the 40's through the 70's kept written records on the garage door of all the maintenance they did on their cars. This was another thing we found really quaint about the house when we moved in. It really gives you a sense of the history of the house and reminds us that it's been here for a long time.
