The Boeheim residence is one of several Barber house examples located in Du Quoin. The Boeheim example of this particular design appears to be a later, somewhat simplified version of the design. The current homeowner graciously allowed me to digitally scan her original Barber artifacts (drawings, specifications, and bill of materials), before donating them all to the McClung Historical Collection in Knoxville, Tennessee.
