Pictures From Our First 50 Years 

In the process of putting out a 50th Anniversary book for Rock River Thresheree Paul Anderson gathered together many old pictures of past Thresherees. He spent hours and hours scanning them into his computer. These are some of the pictures he came up with. The first ones, from very early Thresherees, were given to me by Ellen (Horton) Diedrick.
