Albert and Julia Brock

Another Heritage Ranch of Kaycee: The Brock Family
Albert (A.L.) and Julia Brock moved to Johnson County in 1884 and were neighbors with Frank Canton. In 1890 they purchased a homestead at the base of EK Mountain. Pictured in the photo left to right are Julia, son J. Elmer, Genevra Brock, Ernest Brock, and A.L. Over time, the ranch holdings were expanded. Today, the sixth generation is growing up on the ranch and learning the family business. There was another son Clarence and were three more daughters, Kathryn, Bessie and Esther. Earl was lost in a run away wagon as a young child. I always loved this picture with the plants on the mantel and books in the bookcase. Genevra became the first woman state librarian in the Suffragette state.

 

This photo was taken in front of the Brock Livestock Bunkhouse. Lloyd Brown and Henry Mayer are in the doorway, Ernest Brock is cutting hair, Brett Stapp is receiving the haircut, and an unknown man, with possibly the last name of Cheeseborough, is holding the rifle.
