Thanks to Mr. Bing Eberhart retired Stony Creek Metro Park Superindent.He was able to photograph the Shelden Estate before all the buildings were torn down in May 1981.The only building left standing was the horse barn , that was taken down in 1990.Mr.Eberhart gave me these pictures in 1995.The only picture he didn't take was the horse barn and the caretaker house. These pictures were giving to me by a homeowner in Oakland Township. If your looking for some information check out the Geotours " The Shelden Estate A Self-Guided Tour".I plan on putting together a pamphlet on The Shelden Family.I will share all this information with the Stony Creek Metro Park , park office.
