Description
Photograph of an exterior view of an adobe built by Frenchman Don Luiz Martinez in Sonora Town near Ninth Street and the River(?), ca.1905. A large tree stands at center, obscuring most of the modest one-story adobe behind it. One shuttered window is featured on the adobe's displayed narrow side, with the porch standing to the left, overhung by extended eaves. A windmill stands to the left of the tree next to two carts, backed by still more trees. A sheep grazes on the grass in the foreground. The rudder of the windmill reads "Star Mill". Previous record file read: "stood where now Hansen Packing Company stands".
