A. P. & Nancy (VanMeter) Bayler

I received an email this week from an individual researching the A. P. Bayler family history.  If you would like to connect with this individual let me know, and I can set that up.  The following photos were provided by Bill Hurston via email May 2019.
A. P. Baylor
Nancy (VanMeter) Bayler
 
A. P. & Nancy Bayler.  Possibly in front of their home in Roberts located at the corner of Locust and Adda Streets.
 
A. P. & Nancy Bayler in middle of the front row. Photo taken possibly in front of the home located on Section 27 in Lyman Township.
 
Mr. Bill Hurston is searching for a home in Roberts possibly located at one time on Section 27 in Lyman Township, Roberts, Illinois.  He does not think the home is still standing though.  If you have any information on a home located south of Roberts on the east side of 115, please email me jandowell@hotmail.com
The land appears to also have been owned by G. Minch (1884 plat), Leonard Rock (1966 and 1977 plat).
Photo below is possibly the home from this location.
