northeastern Ohio | I know it is a long shot, but wondering if there any Agtalk readers from Hancock county WV? My great grandparents (John and Anna Herron) had a farm near New Manchester. Sadly, none of the 7 sons took over the farm. He died in 1953 and the farm was sold. https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/22448708/john-edward-herron
My grandfather Carl was the oldest son and came to Ohio in the early 40's to farm. His mother Anna was from this area, so there were family and friends here too.
I would like to find the WV farmstead where John and Anna raised the family. My dad was born in 1949, so he doesn't remember exactly where it was at. I suspect it might be near the Herron airport which is east of New Manchester.
If you are from the area, reply here or email me at [email protected] Thanks!
