This old building may have started out intended to be part of a great cathedral, and now it’s a great mystery, but cathedrals have a room laid out like this.
Latitude 40.2822, Longitude 81.6772 or 40 16 56 and 81 40 38.
I'm now leaning to Bouquet and his 1764 mission into the Ohio country....We KNOW Bouquet built forts on this mission. This stone fort would likely have been for supplies with one or two guards left behind.
I looked at Hutchin's BIG map...circa 1776...while not perfect...I'm seeing a "Fort built in 1764" in the New Comers Town vicinity.
I have Bouquet's diary saved someplace...I'll see if I can find an explicit reference. He really gave a blow by blow.
I just posted it also....but didn’t realize that you posted it earlier. Anyways...I enjoy “the hunt”. Also took a stab at who might have built it and when.
