i found a picture of my grandparents homestead. they moved here in 1929 from the ukraine and started the home stead. it was $10.00 and you had to clear the land and farm it. this picture is right around 1960. i can see my uncles old 1951 ihc 1/2 ton by the barn. i still remember it. the original house is across from the big barn when u drive in. he used to have a 1948 john deere d but it must be hiding someplace. the new house was built in 1956. my parents and i lived in that small house across from the big house. i call it my little house and lived there till i was 3 years till dad bought his farm in 1960. i live on it now. my brother lives on the homestead now and all buildings are gone except the house and my little house and a few grainary's. there was pigs, cows and horses here. dad did lots of farming with the horses.then he got a 15-30 mccormick and did the breaking with it.
