Floyd's posting regarding school pictures reminded me of two that I have. The school is somewhere in the Kinmundy area and I would like to identify the exact school. The only persons I can tentatively identify are Earl Courson, Mae Courson France and Ethel Courson Merritt. Is there someone on the list who might be able to help? Gwen Descendant of COURSON, SHANAFELT, ROTHROCK lines
9. Country School [1]
There was a school Southeast of the Elder/Courson Cemetry. It was call "TICK RIDGE". There was also a Country School north of the Elder/Courson Cemetery. It was called "SWITZER" School. One of these is probably where the Courson children went to school. My guess is Tick Ridge as it is near several Courson farms. meb

13. Re: [ILMARION] Country School [1]
Steve, Brown School was across the road from where Brown Christain Church is at. You are correct that it is in Omega Twp. An old plat map shows the school on the north edge of section 11 of Omega Twp. I have an old group photo dated 1898 of the school but none of the people are identified. There was also a school near the old Miletus Post Office on the southern edge of Meacham Twp. This would be almost directly north of where Brown Church is at. (Somewhere in the area where Krutsinger Rd intersects Neal

16. Calculating Birth Dates [1]
I haven't tried this to see if it works all the time. I'm told it does. If you try it repeatedly and it always works let us know. You need to know the date of death and the age at death, two pieces of information often found on old tombstones. 1. Write the death year, month, day as: -----------> 18890506 2. Subtract the age at death: ----------------> 710709 3. This gives the figure: ------------------------> 18179797 4. Now subtract 8870: --------------------------> 8870 5. The result is: ------------

20. Another Shanafelt School picture, 1889-1890 [1]
Hi Gang, Well, I've done gone and did it again. Yup, another picture turned up. This one is of the Shanafelt School Class of 1889-1890. It's a copy of a newspaper picture so is not as good as the last one, HOWEVER- it has a caption with all the names. I'll copy the names here so if you see a relative and so desire, I'll try to send you a copy. I have a feeling this will be a big project. All of the young ladies in the list are shown with their married names if known at the time, so I will include the marrie
21. Re: [ILMARION] Country School [1]
Since we're on the topic of schools in Marion County, (and I would love for this thread of Courson history to keep going), my grandmother Grace Boston attended the Brown School. I have photos of that school and even some of her writing booklets from the school with her notes and diagrams of the county. Was that school in Omega Township? I think so. It's great stuff and if you're interested in a scan or two, I'd be happy to provide it. If you have anything on the Courson/Boston families, and haven't co
22. Re: [ILMARION] Country School [1]
I have no info on a Grace Boston and I am not related in any way. There was a school in section 26 of Meacham TWP. This is near the present Brown Church. Perhaps they are connected. meb ----- Original Message ----- From: "courson" To: Sent: Tuesday, June 15, 2004 8:32 PM Subject: Re: [ILMARION] Country School > Since we're on the topic of schools in Marion County, (and I would love for > this thread of Courson history to keep going), my grandmother Grac
