Celebrating Our Past: Green County Historical Society
This photograph of unidentified students from the Green Valley School in Cadiz Township was taken about 1936. The earliest records of the Green Valley School are from 1867. Originally the building was located about one-half mile east of W8402 Hale Road, the last location of the school, being moved to this location in 1879 for a cost of $19. The school closed in 1962, becoming part of the Monroe school district. The Green County Historical Society is collecting copies of photos of the groups of students at each of the rural schools in the county so that they can be stored in one repository and have as many students as possible identified. The society also collects clerks, treasurers, and teachers record books from the rural schools. If you can identify any of the people in todays photograph, or have any photos or records that you can share, contact Matt Figi at 325-6503 or mfigi48@tds.net.
