According to Eldrene (Zeigler) Ebert, researcher with Sibley County Historical Society, Sibley, Minnesota:
This is the original farm house in which David and Rosa (Seehawer) Bullert lived. It was located in Section 23 of Green Isle Township, Sibley County, Minnesota, just north of Schauer's Lake. It was probably built when David bought the land in 1866. The house was moved to Section 21 in 1874 when David got land there. In October 2001, the house was torn down by Donald Ziegler.
"This old picture was in the possession of Violet Brockhoff nee Bullert. It was found in her parents' home (Ed and Alvina Bullert) on the bottom of a dresser drawer when her parents passed away. She had a copy made for me at that time. Violet has also passed away and I don't know where it is, or even if it still exists. I don't think there was a date on the photo, or I would have copied it."
