Paddock Farm

Owned by Peter Reiland, Ronald Paddock and Margaret (Tekampe) Paddock worked this farmland as dairy farmers from 1947 to 1960. The Paddock's called it the "Volo Farm" since the family previously farmed in Wauconda (the Andrew Cook House farmland) and they were members of the St. Peter Church and School in Volo. The property is now known as the Black Crown Marsh State Natural Area as part of the Moraine Hills State Park.
