Bought this farm from Arlo Witbeck around 1970. My brother and his wife lived there when they got married. This farm was adjacent to our other farm on West Rd.

Hi Bill,
Do you remember what brand of farm tools and tractors your family used on the farm?

Hi Alexis, yes I remember it well! My parents were very good friends with Oscar Rapkins, the local Allis Chalmers Dealer.
Our tractors were all Allis Chalmers, but the rest of the equipment was whatever we could find at the local auction. A lot of the equipment was so old it had steel wheels!
Just curious, why do you ask?

Hi Bill,
Awesome, thank you for sharing a bit of your families history with us. Vintage Aerial is always curious to the learn the history of our photos. We also have keywords in our search so now if anyone searches for Allis Chalmers tractors they will be able to see your tractors.
