Urban Exploration - Roger's House

We received photos from a traveler and compiled them into a historical summary.

Here is a short visit to Roger’s little house. It has been largely stripped of its furniture and belongings: notably, not a single old photo or letter remains. It was at the bottom of a trash can that I found a document mentioning his surname, written in capital letters.

However, in this small commune, there were two people with this same first and last name. One whose name ends in an e, the other with an é. It turns out that the capital letters, and a total lack of clues, make it impossible for me to distinguish between them; his name ends in E. End of the road!

We can note, however, that both men—who died at 87 and 90 respectively—lived in the commune for a very long time. Given the family heritage, we believe we are dealing with É, born in March 1922 in the village and deceased there in December 2009.

The house has a wooden lintel engraved with "1889," which could potentially correspond to the date of construction.

The house is wide open to the elements and has been abandoned for about ten years. It sits isolated in the countryside. I was honestly stunned to see an "urbexer's setup." The table is set. It’s the latest, completely moronic trend. When you leave your house, even just to go grocery shopping, do you set the table?? Honestly, I’ve had enough of these staged scenes.

When I went to the cemetery, I had a hard time finding the grave; what’s more, it was evening, and after so much tramping around, I was exhausted. It turned out to be the second-to-last grave in the cemetery! The fact is, I cannot say for certain if it is the right burial site, but in any case, it is the only one present in this commune.
