LINCOLN SCHOOL No. 7, Jefferson Township

Lincoln School No. 7 went by many names during its service to the community. In 1894, it was called The Woodbine School. Later it was moved near the Harry GRACE farm and was named the Grace School. When members of the TAYLOR families attended classes in the schoolhouse, it was called the Taylor School. Eventually it was called Lincoln School No. 7.

Mrs. Louise KESSLER taught at the Lincoln School during its last nine years. When the school closed in 1957, Mrs. KESSLER and the students moved to the Diagonal School.
