Joe Urick Jr, the son of Joe and Rose Urick, grandson of Frank and Dora. c. 1940. In the background is the turkey shed that the family moved into when their farmhouse burned down. All the turkeys were moved to one end, when the family took over the other end for themselves. they lived there for maybe a year. They had been in the process of building a new chicken house. When the house burned down, they finished that building as a house for themselves. Needless to say, it had extremely low ceilings. But that became the new farmhouse.
