How neat! Are there any remains of the farm left today?

Oh I wish I knew. There may be. I have no recollection of ever seeing it. I searched for the town office of the town it was located in and the town is so small, just an intersection of two roads so no town clerk. Have to go the the county clerk for any info. Too far away - it's in Wisconsin. I only have two relatives left that may know something about it. I sent an email to the historical society but haven't heard back. I will have to ask my Aunt about it.

The historical society responded to my query. In their response, a copy of a 1912 plat map was included. It shows the property being owned by the family. On a humorous note - it's located at the intersection of County road B, County road Z and County road ZZ. Can you say very RURAL?? There is still an old house on the property but I don't know if it the original house as I don't have a photo of that. I found it interesting so see the map. Thanks for indulging me on my mystery tour.

That's terrific that they responded! Did they want a copy of your picture? Are you on FB.......maybe there is a FB group that you could get more info from. Love the road names!
