The date of 1837 is marked on the Century Farm’s barn. The farm was first run by John V. Ballard and those that followed were: Job Ballard, Ben Ballard, Leon Ballard, Dick Packard and now Eric and Amy Packard Kneller.
The family has a long history with the Troy Sale Barn. Amy and Terri’s grandmother, Marion Parmeter Ballard, first met their grandfather, Leon Ballard, at the Troy Sale Barn.
