Photo 7-DST-22

Comments

This was the John Barto farm in Bradford, Il. The property is no longer a working farm. Sadly, almost all the buildings and trees shown are gone now. Only the (currently vacant) house remains intact.

Hi Stephanie,
What kind of crops were kept in the silos? Do you have a personal connection to this property?

I am the daughter of John Barto.

Primary crops for the farm were corn and soybeans.
