Photo 52-DMI-31

Comments

3807 South Strawtown Pike. My grandparents purchased this farm in the early 1940's... my father grew up here... and when my parents took it over in 1973, I lived and grew up there, too. My parents still live here. Barn and corn crib (lower right) are all gone. Chicken house (above/behind the house) is gone, and replaced with a 32'x64' workshop. Pine tree (immediately left of the house) was struck by lightning and taken down in 2014(?). Large catalpa tree (front/right of the house) was also struck by lightning in the 1980's(?) and taken down.
