How about the bell in the clock tower of the courthouse in Howard? Isn't it on the National Historic Register?

Sorry Andrea, 0 for 2.

As far as I know, there is no bell in the clock tower, the clock itself is a very recent addition.  And it's not on the National Register.  Correction, the Elk County Courthouse was added to the National Register this spring, but does not come up on some appropriate websites.

But, an appropriate guess.

Next clue,

I had a stockyard, rather small.
Now there's hardly anything at all.

Since Charlie is actually in Elk County right now, he's not available to answer.  However, I do happen to know his targeted location and it is not Grand Summit.

In English it is  4 Miles North of Howard on 99 Hwy and 3 Miles East. Or it is in Sec 3, T-29, R 11East
