Title: Goose Pond School ????
Post by: Henry on June 21, 2006, 07:50:17 AM
Hi All,

Daisy Collins gave a photo to the Fairfax Historical Society and on the back it read:

"This is the little old school house (red brick) upon Goose Pond road. Paige and Wayne and Hayden are the three little boys."

As a time reference, Wayne Maxfield was born in 1894, Paige Maxfield was born in 1896 and Hayden Maxfield was born in 1898.

Does anyone know where this school might have been??

If you look at the old 1870s map in the lower right above the Lamoille River just East of the Fairfax Falls in School District 7, you can see where the school is located.  Click on the link below to look at the old map:
