Sectional School No. 14

We have very little information on this school. If anyone has any information or photos we would appreciate hearing from you.

School Superintendents Report (Ontario Archives)

Shows the following information, which in some cases contradicts what we have already researched, and contradicts other filed School Superintendents Reports:

1850: Frame Building, construction date 1826, condition: Good

1854: Stone building, first opened in 1820

 

The following information was extracted from the motion papers of the Elizabethtown Council 1855-1873:
