[mhm1966]

My grandfather came here from Austria in 1910. He purchased this property from R. S. Cox and Sons in 1912 to start his blacksmith business. We still have his anvils along with other blacksmith tools. When America went from horses to automobiles my father owned the business which he transitioned into an Auto Body Shop. Then it was my father and brother running the business. After that it was my brother and I running the business and now it's his two sons. The first picture is the building that my grandfather purchased in 1912 and the second picture is the Auto Body Shop in the 1940's. We had our 100th year anniversary in 2012 and the Auto Body Shop is still in business today with my two nephews running it.
