I took this picture 12-15 years ago...Its a low water bridge across the Fall River between New Albany and Fredonia,KS..Its neat with the RR bridge over it.I was within 3-4 miles of it yesterday..
District #59 one room school NW of Fredonia,KS..Brick schools were common in this area because back in the day there were some large brick factories close by..
Low water bridge across the Fall River south of Benedict,KS...I thought about crossing it for fun but then came back to my senses and just took a picture..My cell phone was dead so I was on my own yesterday. This is the Baker Valley school in the 1980's located south of Benedict,KS...It isnt my picture but belongs to a woman that took pictures of all the one room schools that were still standing near Fredonia 40 years ago... Heres what the Baker Valley School looked like yesterday..Sadly,just the foundation and steps were left from this magnificent old school....I found several other schools yesterday with only the foundations left. On the road to the old Baker Valley school site which is in the trees ahead...I had to move tree limbs to go across this and then had to straddle 2 ft deep ruts on down a ways.. The 1882 Sycamore Valley Methodist Church north of Sycamore,KS. The Maple Grove one room school near Dennis,KS. The Oak Grove one room school hidden away in western MO..I had been unable to find it in 2018...A friend up that way knew where it was and I finally found it last Tuesday...The original desks, black board, and wood stove are still in it.
I have a large farm sale to attend next Saturday in eastern Kansas..
