| CREEK VIEW is a fine farm of one
hundred acres and is owned by Richard Parmley. Postoffice address,
Genoa, R. F. D. It is located on the Creek Road running from Genoa to Auburn,
being two miles from Genoa and seventeen from Auburn, eight to Moravia and
the same distance to Aurora. The proposed electric railroad crosses this
farm. It supports a good dairy, and the soil products are plentiful and such
as are common to this section of the State. The farm has a southwestern exposure,
gently sloping westward. Its dairy products are delivered to the Genoa creamery.
A special feature is its fruit varieties, largely consisting of apples, pears,
peaches, plums, cherries, and the usual small fruits. The residence and out
buildings are in good repair; the residence being supplied with water from
wells, and running water is brought to the barns for the use of stock. Fine
shade trees and a pleasant lawn add to the attractiveness of the home, and
a picturesque view is obtained in several directions. There are eighteen
acres of second growth timber. Mr. B. Whitten, a previous owner,
transferred the property to his son, Henry Whitten, from whom it came
into the hands of the present owner in 1890. Mr. Parmley was born in England
in 1856; he married Miss Frances Furnice, also of England, 1881. They
came to America in 1888; their family consists of a son and three daughters. |
