This bridge is within 3 miles of where 5 schools used to be located, obviously some of the children used this bridge in their lives.

GEORGETOWN SCHOOL/BROWN COUNTY

PLEASANT TOWNSHIP

PRESIDENT GRANT'S CHILDHOOD HOME

GEORGETOWN, OHIO

PLEASANT TOWNSHIP

One must wonder how many children who went to the local schools had parents who played and went to school with the future war general and president.

This school is a mystery.. I have searched on 1875 maps and can not find any New Jersey mentioned in the area of this school. However, this school was built in 1855 and names could have easily been changed.

The builder left a signature in a way, this was done only on the back of the school. Every 7th row he placed the bricks with the ends out instead of the side out.
