Greetings,
The Virginia Museum of Frontier Culture in Staunton, VA should be an
excellent resource on this topic. They have transported houses/cottages
from Northern Ireland, Germany, and England to their living history museum
to show the derivation of the American farm/home in one of the first
frontier areas of the United States, the Shenandoah Valley.
The ALHFAM Annual Conference will be hosted by them in June. For
information on the conference visit this web page:

I can't make a connection to the MOFC page this morning, I'll have to check
the URL.
