Reed Sells Last of Old Family Farm
MONTGOMERY CITY The 87 acre sale ends 138 years of family ownership on the Montgomery County farm. C W Reed sold land between Interstate 70 and old Highway 40 to Michael and Lisa Zekell of Lemay, while the remaining 382 acres were sold last year to Harold Caspers, Ray Oetlings, and Raymon Valdezes. The Tannehill family homesteaded the property in 1832, with roots tracing to Virginia and Kentucky. The sale leaves only a handful of Montgomery County farms still owned by the original homesteading family.
