Roots property on Kimzey Road to auction this weekend
Jean Ibendahl and husband Calvin, longtime owners, will auction their 680 acre homestead on Kimzey Road including a four acre tract with a historic house built by Roots. The sale also covers the one room Roots School and a log cabin moved to the farm, with proceeds aiding SIU Carbondale scholarships. Auctioneer Alex Belcher will oversee the bid as longtime furnishings are mostly sold already.
