Photo 6-EPI-6

Comments

As of November 2015. This was originally numbered 2760 Snyder Road previously. It used to be the Pearl Zimmer farm and is now owned by Don Martino. The only original buildings still there are the silo and the large loafing shed on the left. There is now a large building where the other barns are in the picture.

The current address for this farm is 9762 Snyder Road. The new house is located more to the east and farther north of the old one. I grew up on the farm and my parents Pearl and Ruth Zimmer owned it from 1940 until 1977. They had a Holstein dairy farm from 1940 until 1967 when they switched to raising some beef cattle.

The current address is 7692 Snyder Road and is occupied by Donnie Martino (who bought the farm from the Zimmers) and Linda Black Martino. The old farmhouse was replaced by a new one in the early ‘90s.
