Friday Family Farm

Where we live today is a Farm that was established by the Friday family.  The Friday family were the first pioneers from Württemberg Germany to arrive at Scott County Iowa. 

John M Friday lived in the farmhouse until his wife Elizabeth died in 1901, then he moved into town in the Rockingham area.  His son John M Friday Jr and his family moved in. Back then the address was RR 6 and Blue Grass Road.  We are on the remaining 30 acres of the farm, back then though I believe there was 160 acres for our farm.

Here is an Article from the Newspaper about this family.
