Englehardt Farm

The manufacture of bricks was begun on this spot sometime in the latter 1860's by Henry Bretag, a German brickmaker, the father of Mrs. Englehardt. Brick making discontinued in 1910 due to lack of proper clay. From left to right: Elizabeth C. Englehardt, Gordon L. Keeley of Hudson on horse, Laura Englehardt, Guy Englehardt on horse, and Mrs. Charles Englehardt. Charles Englehardt is standing on top of load of hay. Other men are farmhands.
