SCHOOL CENSUS INFORMATION:

The following are SCHOOL CENSUSES that I found at UWGB via the internet.  They have MANY more, but I just requested copies of the ones prior to 1930.  The "kindred spirit" there is Debra Anderson, GBARC Coordinator, who copied and sent these to me--THANKS!!.  The address is:

University of Wisconsin
Green Bay Area Research Center
2420 Nicolet Drive
Green Bay, Wisconsin 54311-7001
Green Bay Area Research Center

If you have any copies of school records, schoolhouse photos, class photos, graduation programs, etc. that you wouldn't mind sharing, please email me!  It's these little pieces that help make the BIG PUZZLE!  Enjoy!

P.S. If you know WHERE the "Series 11" etc. schools were, please email me and let me know so I can post a better location or township.  Thanks again!

Historical Shawano County Schools
A few weeks ago, Leland Fischer from Antigo - aka Antigo, Wisconsin Genealogy Gopher  - sent me the following information:

<<<I would like to contribute this table I made up about Shawano County historical schools to the Shawano GenWeb web site. I put this together by checking section by section each township map for schools in the 1911 plat book on your site. I then added schools I found on topographic maps. I hope other Shawano researchers can add the missing school names that I was not able to find.  I used a 1984 plat book to get the names of the roads so some road names might have changed and now be different.>>>

Leland, thanks so much for making this table for us and we'll try to "fill in the missing blanks" as we get the information!

And if you know of any information for "Name & District No. ?" -- please email me and we'll update the page.
