Photo 70-IWA-18

Comments

I lived on the property in the photograph for 23 years. Buehler's Milltown store was built here in 1978 or 1979.

This is the farm I grew up on. My father and mother (Richard and Virginia Boreman) rented the house from a man who live in Pennsylvania. I lived there from 1958 to 1977 when I graduated from H.S. and went into the military. I helped my Dad and grandfather with the crops they raised. The farm was located on what is now known as West Milltown Rd. where Buehler's Milltown store is now. The farmland ran West of Burbank Rd (State Rt 83) on Milltown back to the intersection of Oak Hill Rd. From North to South, the land ran about half the width between Milltown and Oldman Rd. I believe it was a total of 82 acres. It was a great place to grow up. Now this farm and all the surrounding farms are gone and replaced by commercial shopping areas.
