Notes - The greater part of Edward's and Opal's married life has been spent working the Huck Farms in Hoyleton Twp., one mile southwest of Huegely Station. The Missouri and Illinois Railroad runs through their farm. Near the track, one-fourth mile east of the residence, is a well, which is all that remains of Popp Station (1896), named for Mr. Popp who had a general store at the site. Henry Huck was postmaster there. Later the station was moved one-half mile up the track to be used by Huegely Milling Company as a grain-buying station. Soon Huegely Station grew to a general store, post office, blacksmith shop, brickyard, creamery, elevator, and a few homes. the houses remain, but the business places are gone. A sawmill, now in operation, replaced the creamery and the brickyard.
Interstate 64 was built through Huck Farms in 1974. An irrigation system was installed on the farm in 1975 as a joint venture by the owner and the present tenants, Lloyd and Virgil Spenner. There are five miles of undergr
ound pipe and four pressure pumping units.
The Edward Hucks now reside in Nashville.
