Black and white 3 1/2"h x 5"w photo of a postcard of Susquehanna in its location in Greenfield Village in Dearborn, Michigan. The roofline incorporates a full length five bay porch front and back. In this view, there are four gable dormers on the left. It appears there is a large central chimney and possibly another small outside end chimney on the far gable end of the house. On the near gable end there appears to be an eight light window above and a twelve light window below, this one with shutters. There are four windows in the wall that looks out on the left porch and a door at the near end. Eight or nine sheep are grazing by the house. In the right foreground is a square one story outbuilding with a pyramid roof. In the left distance is a windmill. Mr. Fenwick's text: "As it looks in its new location Greenfield Village, Dearborn, Michigan. When the U.S. Navy took over Cedar Point and Susquehanna Henry Ford moved this building to Detroit. He also moved the bones and grave stone of His Majesty the King's collector of customs Christopher Rousby."
