The stove idea would also account, possibly, for the bones.
If it was too cold to clean the stove properly, for days on end, the residents would also need a place to store the remains of meals and other items until they could dispose of them.
Hell, one winter in Nebraska, 1975 I believe, I lived in a house that was so snowed under we literally opened the door one morning to a wall of snow.
The whole damn house was buried. We had to use shovels to dig a tunnel out, placing the snow we moved in a bathtub to drain. It was FIERCE.
I'd rather deal with the weather in Florida during hurricane season than return to that.
