In pioneer days, anything that could be home-made was home-made. Especially is the item was usually made of metal. Door and gate latches fell under that description. They were usually made of wood, were part of a tree branch, or part of a scrap piece of board. A single nail through the latch at its middle did the trick. Some latches were small and short; while others were quite large. They were made to fit the situation.
