Cloverdale Barn's history traces to the original name "Homespun" which confuses many since another home, two miles east, also has the same name. The stone house
was built in 1771, and retains a very similar layout as was seen at that time. A Google search of Homespun farm in Frederick County history will allow a review of the digitized book titled Shenandoah Valley Pioneers and Their Descendants: A History of Frederick by Thomas Kemp Cartmell. An old photo accompanies the farms history on following page 418.
