The last yoke of oxen driven in the area are supposed to have been owned and driven by the late Elias Frantz who owned and operated the farm: at DeMunds operated as a duck farm by Paul Warriner. The home is now owned by Lawrence Updyke. This picture of Mr. Frantz and his oxen was taken some forty years ‘ago by the late William Evans of Idetown.
