The Clarence Seigneur home shortly after it was moved and before
the wrap-around porch was added. Emma Whitcomb and daughter, Bertha,
are in the foreground with a hired girl. This house originally was
the office and main building of Dr. Samuel Bell Finney's herbal medicine
complex that flourished from 1865 until about 1900. It was located
about 1/4 mile west of Winameg. There was a U.S. Post Office in Winameg
for quite some time, mostly due to the volume of mail Dr. Finney's business
generated.
