Someday I'd like to see a picture of masons building one of those stone walls. To take field stone, create a remarkably flat surface, with very heavy material, glued together with processed marsh marl - those guys were skilled.
And pounding together 1000lb mortise and tenon beams 30ft up? Skilled.
This is a picture of my grandfather building a barn around 1940. Much later than the early years.

And an early picture of a silo being built 1925.
