My husband grew up on this farm. His family owned it since the mid 1920’s. He still farms it today with many changes.

Thank you for sharing that personal connection to the photo! It's always fascinating to hear stories like yours. Can you tell us more about what it was like growing up on a farm in Ashland County? Were there any standout memories or experiences that you or your husband had during that time? We'd love to hear more about the changes that have taken place since the photo was taken in 1971 as well.

I married my husband in 1977. At that time his parents and grandparents lived in the house. He grew up with 3 generations living in the home. We milled 150 cows until 2019. Now the farm raises heifers for a cow jockey. The 4th and 5th generation is living there now.
