There was a farm in my county- Wern Farm in Genessee, that had 1100 head of Guernseys back in the 20's. Multiple barns and farmsteads, all painted yellow. The biggest had a stanchion barn with cows on two levels. Anyway, they had a bunkhouse there, and the kitchen served 90 hot meals, 3 times a day. Also shipped their own milk to Chicago, and had their own rail siding to load the milk. Today the farm is a pheasant hunting reserve, the biggest barn burned a few years ago. The rail siding is still there, with some old grain bins next to it. Times change.
I'm curious as to who the biggest registered herd was in 1972. My guess is Green MEadows in MI. Or Maddox in CA. Big and registered were not all that common paired together.
