I had a very special visitor this week - the great-great grandson of the original people who homesteaded my farm. He brought up another collection of historical items having to do with the farm, some of which I have pictured here. There is an old photo album, vintage maps, photos and articles. I can't wait to study all of it and learn more about this amazing place.
The people in the photo album are family members of the homesteaders' daughter in law
The album is also a great mid-1800s costume history book - look at her outfit
Old map of Kingsley - land parcels identified by the owners names
My house in 1892
and in 1968
This is awesome!
