My men's breakfast buddy, Jim McAnney, loaned me a photo of an old house given to him by his aunt, Marie Doherty. There was no identifying writing on the photo nor did Marie know the identification of the house.
Jim surmises that the photo is likely family related and may be of an old Loveland or McAnney house, probably from the Frog Town section of Bass River where Lovelands lived, or from Wading River where the McAnneys lived. Marie's roots come from both of these families.
An unusual feature of the house is a distinctive front peaked roof dormer which should make it easy to identify; however, it is likely that the house is no longer standing.
Can anyone out in the Blog-O-Sphere help out with an identification? It would be appreciated.

The old house that you cannot locate might be the old Voorhis house. I was with Ronnie Voorhis a lot in the old days. It is a big house, with a big porch, on Hammonton Road on the sharp turn going towards Wading River.
