                                                                                    SYCAMORE TOWNSHIP

                                            This church was right across the street from the Jefferson School, it would
                                                be very probable that numerous of the students attended here as well.

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.
