So I thought I had lost these photos but, after the hundredth time looking threw my hard drives I found it! The neighbor told me that this house is one of the oldest ones on the block and that their once was a military camp behind it. I forget what else he told me since this was 3 years ago. (Wow it took me 2 years to find these photos...) Also, inside the home I found documents for loading and unloading ships. There are also two graves behind the house as well. When I talked to the area's historic council they didn't even know of these graves being there.
I didn't explore the second floor because me and my brother did not really have proper equipment in case the floor fell in or something else dangerous. The back of the house was almost completely gone.

No problem. I forgot to mention but one of the grave covers where moved. I saw the outline of bricks that housed the body. But I did not see anything. I didn't feel like digging up the grave to see if a skeleton was still there.

the shipping docs are really cool. i wonder why the headstone was moved but the grave left in tact? weather couldn't have done that (i don't think). but yeah, i too feel the dead should be left to rest. glad you didn't unbury, although i too would have wondered and visualized what would have remained.

Me too. Lepers get a lot of crap from "mainstream" society.
Seriously though, those shipping papers are interesting. Googling "Atlantic & Gulf Stevedores" brings up a ton of lawsuit filings.

Well no wonder all of those paper work were there. There were a lot more of them at the house. There is also play boy magazines there too. As well as manuals for computers. Here is another of the shipping paper. It is departing from Baltimore.
Sorry didn't take any pictures of the play boy was afraid my parents would yell at me since I was still 17.
