Tucker/Branum Ranch
Little is know about these two pioneer farmers.  One owned an L-shaped half-section, the other 280 acres mostly rocks, trees and gullies.  An old-time resident, Lois Beckman Dietz, remembers there were children here, though they were far too distant ever to play or school together.  Both the Tuckers and Branums moved on in the Great Depression, and all that remains are the fragmenting stone walls of two buildings, rotting boards, some square nails, fencing, a dug-out place, and the pipe leading to the well.
