Sale Bill

Craig Curfman of Roaring Spring found three auction/sale bills from 1921 while cleaning out his mother’s attic. He said two were salvageable and framed. The executors were his maternal great-grandmother and grandfathers. The farm remained in the family until 1986, owned by Ebersoles for over 100 years.

“It think it’s neat it survived 103 years in the attic rolled up,” Curfman said.

One thing that stood out to him was the use of the German spelling for milk which is milch.
