This mural was created by Jared Bader of Philadelphia. It is titled “Beautiful View “ which is what Wasena translates to in Native American.
I found this on RoanokeVa.Gov
Also nearby I noticed this trash can!
It says “Howbert Farm”…obviously I had to go home and find out more info…
This house once stood on the corner of Floyd Ave and Main St in Wasena…It was part of the Howbert Farm. The picture is taken from the original in 1895…that is the Custer Family posed on the porch…
I found a copy of that picture on VirginiaRoom.Org
Oh and these were taken during the summer! I just hadn’t gotten around to sharing!
