Elijah Thomas Webb Residence
The house in 2019
- ... that the Elijah Thomas Webb Residence (pictured) was built with a family fortune amassed after John Webb struck lead when plowing a corn field? Source: "the first discovery of lead in the area was made by John Webb while he was plowing a corn field" and "This wealth and success would afford Elijah the freedom to construct the high-style Queen Anne residence", both from NRHP doc.

- Comment: Article began as a copy/paste of text from the NRHP nomination form in user space. I moved it to a draft on 8/22, rewrote it, and moved it to mainspace on 8/23 - so it is a brand new article even though the edit history goes back to March.

New enough, long enough. Hook is interesting and cited. No copyvios and QPQ done! Good work and yes off to the approved page. VincentLUFan (talk) (Kenton!) 15:25, 24 August 2020 (UTC)
@MB: this is a gorgeous image. Is it really freely licensed, or is taken from the house's publicity material? Yoninah (talk) 17:35, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
- Yoninah, I have no reason to believe that it is not freely licensed by the author. MB 19:19, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
- @MB: it's posted on their Facebook page. Does that mean anything? Yoninah (talk) 20:23, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
- Yoninah, I don't believe so. The photographer (or sometimes their employer) owns the copyright. If you post it on Facebook, you still own it but you are just allowing FB to use it. Since you still retain ownership, you can still license it for public use on commons. I am not an expert in this area, but that is my understanding.MB 20:34, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
