COVERED BRIDGES AND COURT HOUSES
Since the culture of the one room school houses was during the late 1800s and early 1900s, I decided to also put on this blog the the relevant architecture that the school children would have been directly exposed to. Which would be the covered bridges that the children would have actually crossed, and the county court houses that they would have certainly seen on their trip into town.

Bridge was within 3 miles of numerous schools, obviously students utilized this bridge in their local travels.
