The Strength Family
Strength Family
In 1911, Frank Strength and Mary Moye married and took over the family farm. This began the true agricultural farming that is still done to this day at Legacy Acres. They raised a family of seven children with all of them working on the farm at some point in their life.
Their son, Byron Strength, continued farming the land, some of which was owned by his sister Olene Cooper, after Frank retired. Byron raised cattle, cotton, corn, hogs, soybeans and timber.
