I grew up here.. the silos have been taken down, a new machine shed has been built to the north and a new addition to the house is being built on the southwest side. The church on the southeast corner of the farm has been taken down but the cemetery is still there. The farm that used to be on the east side of the road is totally gone.

Hi Shelley! Thank you for sharing those fascinating updates about the aerial photo in Fayette County, IA. There have been quite a few changes since 1976! Do you have any memories or stories from growing up in that area that you'd like to share? Also, what kind of farming did you or your family do on the property? We'd love to hear more about your experiences!
