The westernmost cattle barn, with the typical round arches and terra cotta trim, houses Aberdeen Angus Cattle.
The easternmost 1907 barn houses Jersey Cattle. It is considered to be the most decorated cattle barn, perhaps because it was the first cattle barn encountered by visitors.
The Holstein Barn, built in 1926, was designed to fit between the Guernsey and Jersey barns and was a response to the growing dairy industry. The building is simpler than the older barns, but it blends well.

The Confederate Cemetery in Raymond contains the graves of 140 Confederate soldiers who were killed during the battle of Raymond on May 12, 1863, or who died as a result of their wounds. Most of the men were from Tennessee and Texas; many died in homes and public buildings that had been appropriated as temporary hospitals. Union dead from the battle of Raymond were initially buried here but later moved to the Vicksburg National Cemetery.
On May 12, 1863, two divisions of the XVII Corps marched from the Roach Farm on the Utica Road and defeated Gregg’s Confederate brigade at Raymond. The next day, McPherson’s men moved to Clinton and cut the railroad. Meanwhile, two divisions of the XV Corps moved from Dillon’s Farm to Mississippi Springs, five miles east of Raymond. To protect the army’s rear as it pivoted toward Jackson, the XIII Corps feigned an attack on Confederate forces at Mt. Moriah, and Grant captured Jackson on May 14.

Erected By
Rev. George Messenger and his congregation built
the first Universalist Church on this site. It was
dedicated during a state convention of Universalists
in Woodstock in June 1844. In 1893, Rev. John A.
Carpenter was instrumental in erecting a new
building – the one before you. It was dedicated
Easter Sunday, April 14, 1895. The church’s front
window memorializes the men of the 66th Ohio
Volunteer Infantry, recruited from Champaign
County during the Civil War. Woodstock in Rush
Township contributed more of it’s sons to the
Union cause per capita than any other community
in the county.
One Hundred Years
On June 20, 1898, a plot of 400 acres around the summit of Mount Greylock was established as the first State Reservation wilderness park, to be enjoyed and preserved by the people of Massachusetts. Those 400 acres were only the beginning of what would become the vast Massachusetts State Forest and Parks system, dedicated to the conservation of public land for all to enjoy.
