  Wow, so much history. Boxcars being used to haul grain. Rolling stock from (now) long gone railroads.

  My first time seeing what my grandfather's farm used to look like. Lot different looking when I was born. Great Photo!

• Kristi (LOC P&P) said:

  chris.neville: Glad you found this image of your grandfather's farm! We also have two other related images in the black-and-white portion of the Farm Security Administration Collection. One is of your grandfather's farm, and one is of the man himself. I'll provide links to their records in the Prints & Photographs Online Catalog: The small farm of John P. Collins in Taunton Massachusetts Mr. John P. Collins, vegetable farmer of Taunton, Massachusetts Enjoy!

• chris.neville said:

  I can't thank you enough for posting these other two photos. My grandfather passed before I was born, and it is great to see him and the farm in this awesome way. Thank you again!

  Just a footnote: Surname was Klonis which was changed to Collins, (americanized), once he arrived from Greece.
