Perry Corn Crib - PERCC
This barn is currently standing on the property owned by Becky Perry. The land was originally owned by Charles Johnson who obtained through the Land Lottery in 1830 when he arrived by boat from England and debarked at St. Mart's port. The farm, where the current homestead sits, is the oldest continuous bussiness in Colquit county according to the family.
The barn was built in 1930 by a local contractor, John May. John received 50 cents per day as payment and each laborer was paid 25 cents per pay. The original use for the barn was as a corn crib, but later was used to feed and house livestock. The wood BarnBeautiful has obtained from the barn was a result of storm damage in the Spring of 2010 when part of the structure collapsed.
As a note, the family now raises bulldogs on the property and is the origin of General for the Citadel and also of Hummer for Parris Island.
Dismantle completed: September 2011
