    Formerly located Miniski Fort, Route 23, near Clove Cemetery, Wantage, New Jersey
    Remarks: 
    The sculpture is located on what was once Miniski Fort, a former home of Hendricks and his uncle Herbert Edge. Both collected Indian relics and they built the totem shortly after they moved to the area, reportedly in the early 1930s. SOS! survey gives conflicting execution date of 1927.
