This picture was taken from the same
spot, but looking west. You can see the five point road junction here.
Just to the left of the old gas station, somewhat blocked by a tree at
the far left is the house in which a Pender lived at the time (1981) |

This picture was basically taken from
the same spot at the previous two, but is looking south-southeast. The
road in the right side of the picture (see break in the big trees) is
the one that you come up from Penders Crossroads. The location of the
Pender homestead is unknown. There were no markers in the area |
