I live on this farm! Looks basically the same, some buildings gone. Chris Fritz built this farm. I believe it was built in 1895. I am the third owner! 19121 Beck rd. Been trying to restore barn!

Hi there! It's fascinating to hear that you live on the farm featured in our 1973 aerial photo of McHenry County, IL! We'd love to learn more about your experience living there. What changes have you noticed on the property since then? Also, what kind of farming have you done? Feel free to share any other memories or stories you have from that time period.
