o. D. Brandenburg has returned to
Madison after visit in this region.
While here he made trip to the old
homestead, about a mile east of the
village of Loganville. The farm is now
owned by Herman LIGHT who resides
on an adjoining place. The late Mrs.
Brandenburg and her children came
from Flushing, Ohio, in 1866, just af
ter the close of the Civil war. Other
relatives had come before and still
others followed, all locating in Lo-
ganville, on Narrows Prairie, or
ridges near by. The house on the
Brandenburg farm is still standing
but not occupied. Some of the heavy
timbers in the frame of the house
are just as solid as when placed there
many years ago. The hophouse, too
by the roadside, is in an excellent
state of preservation. That section
was greatly excited, as was most OF
Sank county, over the hop industry
in the late sixties. Hops proved to be
loadstone for many in the east seek
ing fortunes in the west. There is 9
flower garden on the front lawn, the
old fashioned bachelor buttons, col
, tlmbine, pinks, pansies, peonies, and
roses being in thronging bloom in
the uncut grass. No doubt some OF
these were planted by the early res
idents when they located there soor
after the midyears of the last cen
fury.
