In 1853, Jacob Strong sold his farm in Warrensville Township to John Hecker. The Hecker Family operated a dairy farm on the land until 1914 at which time the land was sold to famed Shaker Heights developers, Oris P. and Mantis J. Van Sweringen. In this 1874 map, the location of John Hecker's farm is outlined in red. | Source: Western Reserve Historical SocietyDownload Original File
