seldom:
Most all homes occupied during or before the 19th century would have had an outhouse or privy in the backyard. These buildings, sometimes referred to as "necessities," were usually located outside the back door of the home or business and as far from the home as possible.
In older rural communities, some houses still have outhouses in the backyard even if they are not used any longer. In other yards, a slight depression in the ground may be the only sign of a previous outhouse. Another source of information on where an outhouse once stood may be older people who live in the neighborhood. They may recall locations of outhouses that stood until the 1940s.
