Kick off

The photos in this blog capture a piece of Leona Valley history from 1913 till about 1930 and are from various Hall family members. In 1913 my grandfather Frank D Hall bought the 3000 acre St. Anthony Ranch, the valley was then known as Leonis. He changed the name of the ranch to Leona Valley Ranch and set about building a dairy farm, but things didn't work out so well. My dad, also Cliff, grew up on the ranch.
The Leona Valley Town Council has a history document here:

Would appreciate any comments you wish to share about a photo or any details you know about it.
For now I will leave comments open to anyone without spam prevention features turned on, if spam becomes a problem I will change the settings.

Tool shed, Bunkhouse - 1924

Photo is poor quality, but good labeling on back by my dad.
Tool shed on left, bunkhouse on right.  Cook house at end of lane, out of picture.  Ranch house is past the right side of photo under trees.  Cliff feeding the chickens.
