TBT: Scholtens Farm 1954

It’s Throwback Thursday once again!

Here is an old photograph of farm lot 4 cons. 3 Chatham Gore Township now Stewart Line the Scholtens farm.

“My grandparent William and Nieska Scholtens purchased the farm from the Turners and this photo was taken in the fall of 1954 in the sugar beat harvest as well. I am standing with my grandparents and my sister Irene is on the tractor seat. Not sure who the other people are but would have been extra workers hired to help because it was a very labour intensive task at that time. ”

Thanks to Bill Scholtens for the photograph!
