"How can we find any information on schools or any pictures of the one room school houses from years ago. My Mom lived on Rockridge and I know she went to school. She was born in 1923. Where can I go to get any information on her education? I would pay to have a picture of a school she may have attended. I live in Ashtabula Ohio. Her maiden name was Mattie Roberts and she married Jesse Reed who was from Coon Branch at Iaeger. Any leads would be helpful.
Thank you!
