                <text>Its name dating back at least to 1917, this 477-acre farm was operated by Eugene Elisha Harmon and his descendants. Origins of the name are unclear: perhaps it derives from the Seminole word meaning "village" or "home"; perhaps the popular representation of a red-winged blackbird's song. It is located at the western end of Harmon Road in the town of Belcoda, (now generally known as Wheatland). Harmon maintained a flock of sheep and herd of dairy cows; crops were primarily wheat, beans, and hay. Ownership of the farm passed to Eugene's son John Elisha upon the father's death in 1919, and then in 1974 to John's daughter Nancy.&#13;

Four contemporary digital photos have been converted to b/w. The first three depict O-Ka-lee's unusual Wells Patent barn, designed and constructed by a local firm that built over 200 others in Western New York. The fourth shows a stone hitching post still standing alongside the road in front of the home.</text>
