| PINE TERRACE is the name given
to the fine farm of Mrs. L. Eaton and M. N. Eaton, whose postoffice
address is Genoa, R. F. D. It consists of one hundred and ten acres on the
cross road from Indian Field Road to the Big Salmon Creek, sixteen miles
from Auburn, four from Genoa, seven miles to Moravia and nine miles to Aurora.
This farm is well adapted to all soil products common to this section, as
well as dairying and fruit raising; it also makes a specialty of its poultry.
The dairy products are prepared at home, butter being supplied to local markets.
The farm was first owned by the Husteds, from them to a Mr.
Mosher, thence to David Nye, and from him to Samuel Eaton
in 1870, who resided here until his death in 1890. His wife still resides
on the farm with her daughter and son-in-law, who was born in Ashland County,
Ohio, in 1863, and married Miss Minnie M. Eaton, in 1891, who is a
native of Cayuga County. They have one daughter who resides with her parents.
Mr. Eaton is one of the wide-awake young farmers of his town and a well-known
school teacher; he is also Justice of the Peace. The farm is supplied with
running water for the fields and buildings by wells. There are also never
failing springs near the barns for the convenience of stock. There are ten
acres of timber of second growth, including a fine grove of sugar maples. |
