THERE ARE 33 OF THE OLD ONE ROOM SCHOOLHOUSES ON THIS SITE. ORIGINALLY THERE
WERE AROUND 200 OF THESE SCHOOLS IN THIS COUNTY DURING THE ERA OF THEIR PRIMARY
USAGE FROM THE 1860s-1930s.
TO MAKE SURE IT TRULY WAS A ONE ROOM
SCHOOLHOUSE AT ONE TIME IN THE PAST, BEFORE ANY OF THE SCHOOLS WERE PLACED ON
THIS SITE, I VERIFIED THE ACCURACY OF THE LOCATION THROUGH A DUPLICATE
VERIFICATION PROCESS. ALSO, EVERY HOUSE THAT IS POSTED ON THIS SITE IS COMPRISED
OF THE VAST MAJORITY OF THE ORIGINAL SCHOOL,WHICH IS ALSO PERSONALLY VERIFIED.
ALTHOUGH SOME HAVE HAD SIDING ADDED, OR OTHER MODIFICATIONS, THEY HAVE KEPT THE
ORIGINAL STRUCTURE UNDERNEATH OF IT. EVERYTHING THAT IS POSTED IS TRULY WHAT
CONSISTS OF ALMOST ALL OF THE ORIGINAL SCHOOL HOUSE.
I WOULD LIKE TO
MENTION THAT ALL OF MY PHOTOGRAPHS ARE IN THE PROCESS OF BEING COPYRIGHTED. I AM
WILLING TO GIVE THE RIGHTS TO NON-PROFIT HISTORICAL PROJECTS, LIBRARIES,
SCHOOLS, HISTORICAL SOCIETIES. HOWEVER, IF MY PHOTOS ARE USED AS A PROFIT
SOURCE, I DO EXPECT COMPENSATION.

PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH/HIGHLAND COUNTY
MARSHALL, OHIO
MARSHALL TOWNSHIP
This church is in the center of the township and is located within three miles from
where at least four of the old one room schoolhouses used to sit. It would almost
be a certainty to say a lot of these students and their families would have attended service here.
GREENFIELD COURTHOUSE/HIGHLAND COUNTY
GREENFIELD, OHIO
MADISON TOWNSHIP
This is the definately the center point of this town; this building sits within two miles of
where a couple of the one room schoolhouses sat. Certainly numerous of the students had
walked by this amazing old structure
NEW MARKET BABTIST CHURCH/HIGHLAND COUNTY
NEW MARKET, OHIO
NEW MARKET TOWNSHIP
This church was within a three mile radius of where five of the one room schoolhouse
used to be located. Probably an almost possibility that some of the students and
their families attended service here on Sundays.
