This house is one of my regular photographic subjects. I discussed that on March 28, and don't see any need to repeat the comments here.
==========
A year ago I spent about half an hour wandering the local backroads, shooting pretty much random photos in hopes that one would work for 366 Snaps. A clue about my method for the day is that the image shown above and the 366 Snaps photo of Hoytville were taken just a few feet apart, but the timestamps are separated by over 20 minutes (and 23 photographs). I was trying to capture the morning fog, and trying to master the FujiFilm camera I'd forgotten how to use. I had some success at both.
==========
Henry Hoyt, a Civil War veteran from Connecticut with a medical degree, settled at the corner of the roads now called Mulliken and Saginaw in 1867. He'd previously practiced medicine somewhere in Ohio for a couple years.
Hoyt abandoned the medical practice around 1870 and opened a store, presumably that shown in the 366 Snaps photo. In 1880 Hoyt became the postmaster and the Post Office began calling the location Hoytville.
There was already a settlement at the corner when Hoyt arrived, which was known as Centre. In 1888 Mulliken--a bit over a mile north of Hoytville--acquired its own post office, and began to dominate (hah!) the local landscape (a feeble domination, that). But it's misleading to claim Hoytville died as Mulliken grew, since the hamlet today's not all that different from its 1880 prime.
Most of this information courtesy of Samuel Durant's 1880 county history. I've been unable to locate any later references to Dr. Hoyt.
==========
The 366 Snaps photo drew interesting comments on Flickr, primarily because the details are washed out. In this case, the "high key" effect was semi-intentional.
