Roderick Family Farm, Links Road (at that time was Links Bridge Road, then Agnus '73 took the bridge) Wm. Harold & Madaline Roderick. Now farmed by grandson, Joshua Roderick, since 2003. My Mom, Bernice was one of Harold & Madaline's 6 children. Through the years a swimming pool across the driveway from the house. Milking parlor. New shop, machine shed, freestall shed. Harvestore silos, manure pit, trench silos, new heifer facilities. Very modern facility. Black topped driveway!!! Lots of grandchildren and great-grandchildren played baseball in that front yard, as well as had Easter egg hunts and celebrated Christmas in that gorgeous home!

Same farm as in photo 9-LFR-4. Agnes was in '72 (fifty years ago). Nearly thirty bridges were damaged or destroyed, in Frederick County by that storm.
