I have been reading the posts here for sometime, but never posted. I have a
photo copy picture here of a school. The children are standing at what looks
like a side of the school under two windows with a netting of some sort over
the windows. The School is white. A young girl is holding a small black
board with the following written on it. "Wabash Primary School. Oct. 12,
1912 or 1915. I can not be certain of the year. It looks as if there are 10
boys and 13 girls . The children are of various ages and the teacher is a
female. The only children identified on the picture are Clarence La Rue,
Kenneth Teeters?, Mildred LaRue, Nancy Moyer, Nellie Smith and my Father,
George H. Bourelle.
