Lenoir’s Creek Devon Down Sizing
Charles and Martha Trantham, owners of Lenoir’s Creek Devon, in Canton, NC, have decided it’s time to downsize, due to our health and age. We are going to get back down to just the main farm, here at the house.
We would like to tell a little of the history, about the Devon that are descendants of the original herd from 1849. Captain Thomas Isaac Lenoir and his slaves drove the first Devon cattle to settle the North Carolina mountains from Maryland in the summer of 1849. It is said that it took them the entire summer to make the journey. There is no record of the size of the original herd; however, there is documentation that Devon have been here on this farm since 1849.
Please look at the spreadsheet for animals available at this time. As you look at the sheet, you will see there are cow/calf pairs, young heifers and bulls.
