Johnson School 1918
Submitted by Vivian Gudgell
Hi Denise,
I noticed you have a picture of the JOHNSON school (year 1918) in the
photo album. Here is the same picture with the names of the teachers
attached.
This school was built on land donated by WILLIAM G. JOHNSON located on
the road between Thomas and New Bedford, Fairfield Twp, Bureau County.
WILLIAM G. JOHNSON was the Great grandfather of Lyle GUDGELL, my
husband, and Lyle attended school in that schoolhouse during his first
year of schooling, which must have been about 1926/27. Lyle lived with
his grandmother, MARY MATILDA (JOHNSON) GUDGELL until she died 16 Nov.
1927.
I love your site...
