Description / Synopsis
Reath’s Crossing School, State Road, Near Vulcan, Dickinson County, Michigan, ca. 1890-1899: The Reath’s Crossing School, built in 1879, served families with children living on the State Road. The distance to Vulcan was too far to walk and the children would have had to cross the river. Before this school was built, classes were held in the James Rice farmhouse. Farmers involved in constructing the schoolhouse included James Rice, Eugene Liberty and Richard Reath. The first teacher was Miss Burdock. Before building the school classes were held in the James Rice home. This photograph was probably taken in the 1890s. [Dr. David L. Reath] |
