| Title | Early Schools of Jackson County |
| Abstract | Mention of Henry Noland and his wife, Elizabeth Pitcher Noland, or Elizabeth Noland, as founders of the Rock Creek school at Englewood and Ezra Oldham, one of the first trustees of the school in Jackson County in 1840. |
| Notes | The Rock Creek school at Englewood was founded in 1840. In that year the site was transferred to the trustees for school purposes by Henry Noland and his wife, Elizabeth Pitcher Noland, for a consideration of $10. This is the oldest school in the county. All schools mentioned in this paper up to about 1845 are country schools. The building has been replaced twice. |
