The Holmes' settled in Madison County in 1854 from Indiana. Their initial {{convert|40|acre|sing=on}} farm eventually expanded to a {{convert|350|acre}}. John Holmes farmed, raised livestock, and held several local offices in the community. This building is a fine example of a vernacular limestone farm building.[2] The 1½-story structure is composed of large blocks of locally quarried finished cut stone. It is equivalent in height to a three-story building.[2] There was an attempt some time ago to stucco the structure in order to preserve the stone, however, a storm a few hours after it was applied washed most of it off. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.[1] References1. ^1 {{NRISref|2009a}} {{Registered Historic Places}}{{NRHP in Madison County, Iowa}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Holmes, John S. and Elizabeth Beem, Barn}}{{Iowa-NRHP-stub}}{{Iowa-struct-stub}}2. ^1 {{cite web|url={{NRHP url|id=87001665}}|title=John S. and Elizabeth Beem Holmes Barn|publisher=National Park Service|accessdate=2016-07-27|author=Roslea Johnson}} with {{NRHP url|id=87001665|photos=y|title=photos}} 5 : Infrastructure completed in 1875|Vernacular architecture in Iowa|Buildings and structures in Madison County, Iowa|National Register of Historic Places in Madison County, Iowa|Barns on the National Register of Historic Places in Iowa |
