grandfather did business. My family operated a smaller stock yard on a rail spur here. My great grandfather would have been considered an order buyer and shipped to the bigger yards I out east or the Midwest. I think most of the stock went to Chicago but I know he sent some to St Louis. I know he sent some there during WWI because they were paying a huge premium there do to some government contracts.
