I believe this is where my great grandmother and great uncle lived. Bill Siekman and his mother Mary Siekman

Hi Deborah,
Have you ever visited this property? What kind of farm did your family members operate here?

My great grandfather Fred Siekman bought this farm. Brought his bride here Mary Junkermeier. Had 2 sons and 2 daughters. They were farmers and my great uncle Bill lived here with his mother Mary. My father Dean Siekman farmed with him when he came back in 1951. After Bill’s passing the farm was sold to a neighbor. It is now a field of corn as of July 17,2022.
