It Happened in Crawford County: Farming and family make a fulfilling life for Clay Ehmann
Clay Ehmann is the son of John and Mary Hohler Ehmann. His siblings are Traci Coffman, John C. “J. C.” and Elisa Griffin. Clay started school at Colonel Crawford where he played high school basketball and baseball but quit sports to get the spring crops planted. He was also a member in FFA. Clay went to Pioneer Career and Technology Center in Shelby, in his junior and senior year, studying diesel mechanics, which was a good decision since it helped his career. Clay is a third-generation farmer. He always knew he wanted to farm; it’s in his blood. His grandfather, Winfield Ehmann, rented and later bought the farm east of Bucyrus in 1949. Grandma Edith was the typical farm wife. The second generation was Clay’s father, John, who purchased the farm in the ‘70s from his dad. John kept the milking cows until 1966 when they were sold. Grandpa Winfield’s health wasn’t good, and John was serving in the Army following the Korean and Vietnam wars. When he returned home, they went back into the hog and cattle business.
