What we know
One of the earliest homesteads in the Peyton-Bijou Basin area, begun as a horse ranch supplying mounts to the U.S. Cavalry; a small stone house built into the hillside (PPLD records of survey B5).
Where it was
'Four miles north of Peyton on Bradshaw Road' (PPLD record of survey photo B5): four miles north of GNIS's Peyton point is the north end of Bradshaw Road in OpenStreetMap. Good to about a quarter mile.
