thread and gage company farm on Richardson rd

Located on Richardson Rd. north of the Village of Spring Grove, the farm was purchased by Deno Buralli, Jr. about 1967. The farm was named "Thread & Gage Co., Inc. Farms" after his manufacturing company "Thread and Gage Company" that was located in Spring Grove. He and his father, Deno Buralli, Sr. (1912-1995) began breeding Angus soon after purchasing the farm. The farm has been in operation for over 50 years. Since 1942, Deno Sr. was a summer resident of the area and was a sculptor in Chicago. He became a permanent resident in 1957.
