My dad built this house and 2 buildings in 1978. The big barn was previously part of the original farmstead house to the right. I grew up here. I had a HUGE sand box behind the middle building, towards the house. He sold the house and farm in 1992. We moved to the UP in 1993. Loved growing up there playing in the woods and swamps on the 50 acres.

Hi JAK Kouw! It's fascinating to hear your personal connection to the property in Allegan County. It must have been an amazing place to grow up! Can you recall any particular memories from the 1982 photo? Did your family engage in any specific farming activities on the 50 acres?
