Homer Croy early life memories of Missouri farm
Amos Croy settled on a Marysville farm in Missouri where his son Homer was born. Homer recalls a cyclone that wrecked the sod barn and fruiting orchard. Sundays meant church and family meals with weight guessing for steer. He helped during calf dehorning and weaning and assisted in sausage making with grinder work and sausage stuffing. The family cured hams and stocked meat for the year.
