The Kline Homestead, Highlands Ranch, Colorado (Photographed in the 1980's)
The farm house was built by Frank J. Kline, a dairy farmer and machinist who homesteaded the land in 1888 with his wife Annie. They traveled to Colorado from Pennsylvania and constructed a two-story house of native rock and clapboard. The home had four upstairs bedrooms where the Klines raised four children. The farm also had a barn, a hand dug well, spring house, large root cellar, stable with a corral, chicken house and more.
The farm was demolished in 1996 and a few artifacts remain at a community park one block east of the original home site.
