#16 and 17 of Overmyer homestead. Newton and Rozella raised their family there. Carlyle β€œJim”, Corneal β€œDutch”, Cressida (Fulkert), and Robert. My parents, Dutch and Lucille Magsig were married in the home 12/13/1933. Their grandson Sheldon Overmyer now owns the farm but not the house.

Hi Gaylon, thank you for sharing the wonderful history of the Overmyer homestead in Ottawa County, OH. It's fascinating to hear about the family and the connections to your parents' marriage. We'd love to learn more about your memories growing up in the area during the 1971 photo. Could you share any special moments from that time or perhaps what has changed on the farm since then?
