Hi,
As you seen my name is Linda and my husbands
name is Jesse Allen and is called Allen.
His parents names are Russell and Doris and
his grandparents were Jess and Hazel.We
live on the homeplace where Jess and Hazel
lived.In fact, they were the ones that built the house that we live in. I dont know
if you are familiar with the names of George
Earl and Russell.They were brothers of Jesse. They all lived with their families
within a short area of each other.
This farm is part of the original land that
belonged to Albert, father of Jess.When
each son was married, they were given land
and a house was built for them.My husbands
grandparents were married, his parents moved
so they moved into their house.When this
house was built, that house was torn down.
This farm has a lot of history.One of our
barns has bark on the rafters since it was all hand hewned.Also, the buggy shed has
all wooded pegs instead of nails.
