The top of the tree is left off because in genealogy, there are few families who

The Teske Farmstead was purchased in 2003 by the Janousek's.
The farmstead as a whole was nominated to the National Register of Historical Places

The barn was built by Charles Ebert in 1910 to house cows, horses, grain and hay. He also used part of the barn to milk his cows. Currently it is used to store hay, straw. grain and various other supplies. Charles Ebert bought the farm from his father-in-law in 1902, and he sold the farm to his son Kenneth Ebert in 1946, the barn took on many roles. The hayloft was used to store alfalfa and straw, but a basketball game or two was played in that hayloft too! A couple of cows continued to be milked in his barn. And when Kenneth's family was in 4-H, the 4-H steers were housed in the barn as well. During lambing season, the sheep that were about to lamb were kept in the barn. Each night before bed, the Ebert boys could be found in the barn making sure baby lambs arrived safely. The farm received the century farm award in 2005. Kenneth and Dorothy Ebert's children inherited the farm in 2008, and it remains in the family today.
