MURAKAMI, KATSUYORI AND KIMIKO WITH DAUGHTER ALICE MURAKAMI

Katsuyori and Kimiko Murakami with infant daughter Alice Murakami.
Katsuyori and Kimiko bought virgin land that stretched from Frank Speed’s on Sharp Road to near what is now Atkins Road. They were pioneers, clearing the land of trees and bushes in order to start a farm.
Katsuyori and Kimiko were partners in everything they did. Clearing the land was very hard work, but Katsuyori had an invincible spirit and pursued his dream to have a good working farm.
