It was a 2 room log structure built in or around 1814 and was added on to in 1904 and is still standing! There also used to be a post office at the end of what is now our driveway and a church where my neighbors house is now . The cemetary is still there. All this is located just west of Troy, Mo on hwy AA. If anyone has any info about this town or its people please feel free to contact me at 636-290-2573. Ty I look forward to learning more about my property so that i may be able to better preserve anything that may pertain to the history of Mashek!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10258304770186200308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6820176023454345900.post-40531438834684926292015-01-29T15:36:48.931-06:002015-01-29T15:36:48.931-06:00There are also settlements in St. Mary's, MO a...There are also settlements in St. Mary's, MO and Ste. Genevieve, Mo areas as well. I know as that is where all of my Bohemian relatives settled in 1860 after coming over by ship.Mary Swinknoreply@blogger.com
