He initially purchased a small home within walking distance of his drugstore;[17] however, when oil was discovered on his land, it provided the financial resources needed to build a larger home.[13] The Limberlost Cabin at Geneva served as Stratton-Porter's home from 1895 to 1913.[18][19] In 1912, with the profits she made from her best-selling novels and successful writing career, Stratton-Porter purchased property along Sylvan Lake, near Rome City in Noble County, Indiana, and built the Cabin at Wildflower Woods estate, which eventually encompassed 120 acres (49 hectares). Stratton-Porter began photographing birds in the Limberlost Swamp and along the Wabash River near her home in Geneva, Indiana, after her husband, Charles, and daughter, Jeannette, presented her with a camera as a Christmas gift in 1895.	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-9791.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-9791.txt
