July 11-1934 is now owned by the Eastman Kodak Co. whose immense plan-celubid factory is adjoning. Jorbin Mark is the sixth generation from the original John Mark, and still lives in the same general territory. His farm acre farm is of his mother's estate (the Piper family). I asked Jorbin Mark what he thought the Mark Homestead land was worth per acre. He thought $100 and if we own bought the home would be $200 in. Really is another farm of the same kind of land and when Jorbin told this farmer who he tried me, he said he could not take $1000 per acre, since the Eastman Co had fair $2000 per acre for a few years to get a big spring 1977 water income on their property. All of the great lone granite boulders are eroded from semite ledges nearby.
