Photo 78-RCL-23

Comments

The house burned down, all the out buildings have been torn down. This was a 100 acre farm, I lived there from when I was 6 years old until I was 20. There was my Dad, Mom, 2 brothers, and 3 sisters.
The farm has been divided up into 5 acre lots, 20 acres were bought by the township to enlarge the graveyard across the street. The area in front of the cars was always kept mowed out to about 300 yards deep, my dad loved golf and that was our driving range. The only draw-back was having to go pick up all the balls you hit out there.

Thank you for sharing your memories of the farm in the photo! It sounds like it was a beautiful place to grow up. Can you tell us more about what the surrounding area was like back then? We'd love to hear more about life in Clermont County in the 1980s, and how things have changed since then.
