Vogel family members with photo of their farm.

Eviction from a family farm: Vogel family, Guthrie County, November 8, 1986. The family was staying until forced off their land. A foreclosure sale had claimed the farm the previous March. However, the Vogels protested the law and were supported by a score of other farmers. The event, despite the number of police cars and officers, was peaceul. Mark Vogel, son of John Vogel, was arrested along wtih the Rev. Frank Cordaro for refusing to leave the property. The sheriff started the eviction proceedings which were over in a few minutes. The house stood empy, supporters and press were held at a distance from the property which was no longer owned or occupied by the Vogels.
