Among William Gedney earliest subjects were his maternal grandparents and their dairy farm in Norton Hill, New York. Most of these photographs, which he collected under the title, "The Farm," were made between 1957 and 1959. In early writings, Gedney describes childhood memories of time spent with his grandparents and his attraction to their rural way of life.
