The NE 1/2 24-8-21-W4 was farmed by Mr. Thomas Neve
(1868 - 1957) and his wife Millicent Neve (1881-1960
from 1938 - 1950.

The most noteworthy crop raised on the farm was rhubarb.
Tom used horses only, during his farming years, except
for his easily identifiable Model A 1/2 Ton.

Mr. Neve worked as a telegrapher with the Alberta Railway
and Irrrigation Company, and the Canadian Pacific Railway
before starting to farm in 1938. Tom's wife, Millicent,
created exquisite handwork.

The Neve Family and their offspring enjoyed many happy
times on the farm. The experiences and family get
togethers in a rural setting were very much appreciated
by all family members.

Two of four children still survive. Deceased children are
Mrs. Vila (Burns) Little, and Ed (Mary) Neve, both
formerly of Lethbridge.
