    Absolutely fascinating, so much history there. Love the painting. Amazing that your uncle still has the Thomas Edison portrait. Wouldn’t it be lovely if someone did this up,nice and children were able to use it as a community centre for play and meeting friends . Thank you. Love your videos, cannot wait to see progress on your Dad’s house ❤

    Places of history should become museums and there should be a law that forces that state to maintain the property. Thanks for showing.

    My Dad told me that when he was in high school in the 40’s kids would bring their hunting rifles to school to repair and clean them..there was a sand pit behind the school where they would shoot targets..crazy to think of that today

    Sad the community doesn’t come together and restore it and bring back to life . They did that to the old school house my mother’s family attended . It’s now a Community Center ❤

    Omgosh my heart was racing when you were walking on those floors but WOW the history and the items left inside this schoolhouse. If the walls could only talk I'm sure so many stories would be told. All the old school chairs and old desks were awesome to see, the numbers on the floor were so cool. Thank you for taking the time to share this old schoolhouse.

A reminder of where we were and where the path is leading you now. Keep up the good work, it only gets easier from here !!! Thank you for sharing, I just subscribed and notifications are on ☺

    This is so awesome,, old desks, chairs, etc. Its hard to imagine over 100 school children in there at one time and I"m sure it crowded. That stove and fridge was probably there to make breakfast and lunches. Yes, I'm interested in old buildings and such. Thank you for sharing.

    Back in the mid 60's in Comfort TX half of our classroom was 5th grade and 6th grade, no divider in the room, Mr Bergmann was our teacher and my God he was a saint, how he taught and managed two grades in one room blows my mind, I was a total madman yet he keep me under control, God bless you Mr Bergmann. I bet if you got under this school you would probably hear footsteps just like at your grandparents house or maybe children playing.

    Its a shame that the place is just about ready to fall in. Once it is gone , its gone forever. I am not sure if it is worth saving , it has been through many changes in the past 100 years and is just a shell of what it used to be. And yes , lets see some other things around your area!

    I love history my favorite subject in school. This was so interesting, you can just imagine the student sitting at their desks looking at the blackboard and the old wood burning stove to keep the students warm. This would be so cool if someone would restore this building for its historical integrity. Thank you so much for sharing this with us, can you imagine the stories told by the students back then. Yes please continue making content about older buildings. My sister in law lives in a very small town in Tennessee not to far from Kentucky in an area they called the holler. And there are quite a few of,them there.

    Wow! 10 cents a day tuition. That sounds like a lot for that era of time. It would be tough if you had 5 or 6 children going to school everyday. I suppose that was before school taxes began.

    Wow that Fridge was made by General Motors and if you worked there you got a discount if you bought the fridge, the electric stove I had one my aunt gave me the kelvanator i got it around 1977 she had it from the 50's it was so cool with the back left burner having a deep pot down in it to cook beans on, or whatever you wanted...the round heater stove looked like one my granny had, it was called a FATSO and it was written across the front, but that didn't have it on it. Would love to restore that along with those appliances. That wood burning/coal stove would need new grates and it could work another 100 years probably.
