Title A name given to the resource Theo Buerbaum's Salisbury Subject The topic of the resource Historical postcards of Salisbury and Rowan County Description An account of the resource The 87 postcards in this project are from two collections from the Edith M. Clark History Room at the Rowan Public Library, The Miscellaneous Postcard Collection, MSS 9034 and The Johnny Young Postcard Collection, MSS 9908. The postcards in the project are those in some way connected with Theo Buerbaum, who was a photographer and bookstore owner in Salisbury, North Carolina from 1880-1926. Most of the postcards are from photographs he took, but others are ones that bear the imprint of his bookstore in some way. Included with the images are short histories researched by our staff of the events, places, or people depicted in the postcard. Our collection includes the images of Theo Buerbaum’s postcards, but this is by no means all that he produced. We are always looking out for images we do not have and we will happily take other donations.

Title A name given to the resource Old Stone House #1 Description An account of the resource German immigrant Michael Braun (Brown) built this house of native stone in 1766 near Granite Quarry. The son of Stephen Braun, he had arrived in Philadelphia with his family on the ship the “Glasgow” in 1738. The family settled in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania for about 20 years. In the late 1750’s, Michael and other members of his family made their way south to Rowan County. Michael Braun appears on the Rowan County tax list beginning in 1759. He was active in the civic affairs of Rowan County and served as a juror as early as 1758. Braun purchased 274 acres from John Dunn in 1760 and he and his sons began to build the house. He became a naturalized citizen in 1763 and was appointed constable in 1764. In 1771, he was made overseer of the road from Salisbury to the Dutch Meeting House. In 1777, his name appears as a Justice in the Rowan County Court Records. Michael Braun died in 1808, but his family occupied the house until 1904. The two-story house is the oldest structure in Rowan County and one of few remaining stone houses in the state of the 18th and early 19th centuries. It is a substantial house for the time period. By the 1920’s, the house had fallen into disrepair. Shown here before restoration, the house underwent several restorations after the 1930’s, the most recent in 1966. The house is now owned by the Rowan Museum, Incorporated and is open to the public as an historical site. The Michael Braun graveyard is located in the woods across the road from the Old Stone House. It contains over a dozen graves of Michael Braun descendants. The stone-wall surrounding the cemetery was restored in 1915. Two large stone posts mark the entrance where they probably once supported a wooden gate. Margareta Braun’s tombstone, dated 1771, is prominent in the cemetery. Series No. 0150 – Raphael Tuck & Sons.
