Im starting to do some research on the old historic one room type schoolhouses. I was talking to somebody and he said in many places schools were around two miles apart , since they were walked to by the students and they couldnt be very far. Im not entirely sure but seems like it would have to depend on the area and population density at the time. And the best ones to hunt are where the building is long gone. That got me started trying to locate where some once were. But in all the historical mapps Ive seen so far the schools arent marked or atleast labeled. Except for the few I see around the area where the building is still standing I am drawing a blank how to locate the sites. Anyone on here with some expertise and experience finding these places where a little or one room school once stood have some tips they could share ?
