Dad was born in 1905, he and a brother farmed together until they had two Fordsons, two plows, two everything, and then went their separate ways. They also married sisters, and all, including the parents, lived in the same 1 1/2 story house for a while. (Mom told all of us, when you get married, I don"t care if you need to live in a house with dirt floors...DO NOT live with in-laws!). My folks got married in 1931. They lived on rented farms, quit for a year, and got back into farming. Dad was a farmer/dealer for AC, where he bought AC and sold them to other farmers. He kept the last one, a 1939 WC, and after 9 moves, bought the farm I was raised on. (Not this one). Added a Model C in 1949, traded for another WC with mounted picker in "51. Traded the "39 on a new WD45 in "56. Bought a WD in about "62. Quit farming in "65.
I started here in "72 with a WD and D17, added a 4020 in "73. Added a 3020 in "76, Added a 4430 in 1980, a 2470 Case in "85, a 4240 in the 90s. Sold the 4430 in 2004 after quitting livestock. Meantime, put a Cummins 855 in the Case tractor after a couple of bad overhauls on the 504 engine. Sold that, and it"s still working.
