This is the home/farm where I grew up, about 4 miles east, then 3 miles south of Cissna Park, Illinois, near Fountain Creek. My parents were Frederic and Wilma Stock, and they lived here many years, raising Ayrshire dairy cows and growing mostly corn and beans. My brothers are Robert (Bob) and Russell Stock. My mother's parents owned and lived on this farm before my parents...Albert and Carrie (Knapp) Hari.
My father passed away in November 1987. My mother sold the homestead and moved out around 1989 I think. She continued to own the farmland until she passed away, December, 2014. Many happy memories here....wouldn't change my rural farm life childhood for anything!
I don't know the exact address now, but would be close to 176 N 1600 East Road, Cissna Park, IL.
