THE FAMILY OF FRED AND MARY MOSHER DANN


When Fred Dann came of age, he moved a few miles southeast from the Moreland farm and settled on the other side of the valley. He made his home on the Ridge Road, a road which traverses the high ground between Horseheads and Odessa.

Danns of three generations farmed parts of that hillside for more than fifty years.
