In 1972, my grandparents bought 176 acres that contained an old farmhouse, a barn and several outbuildings. They spent many years restoring the property and in the late 1980s bought an adjacent 105 acres, which was largely undeveloped except for many, many stone walls and the foundation of this house. My grandfather did considerable research on his property and found the old deed to the house that once stood on the foundation, as well as photographs of it. Even though these people are not related to us, still I feel a kinship to them, since they probably loved that piece of land as much as we do now!
Journaling says:
This is the Old Neufer Place, which used to be on what is now Great Don & Gramma Josie's farm. All that is left is the foundation, which is near the tepee.
