My kids loved this farm. Gramma Shook was the best and they spent many great days with her. My first taste of farm life after being a Bostonian for 21 years came on this farm with a wonderful mother - in Law.

omg i recognized it right away. yes i was happy there loved the place and my gramma too.

Grandma Shook’s original farm on Cherry Valley Road and Myelle Road in rural Kingston, IL. This farm was owned by Henry & Mary Hagen who adopted Grandma. She built a new ranch house behind this one in 1975, and this house and barn were demolished. Many great memories here!
