    The Worth County tornado in 1947 was a 'high end F4 killer. These locals are farm people and very weather savvy so that high a death toll shows how brutal the storm was.

    Very nicely done. I spent a lot of time in Worth and Harrison counties growing up in the 60s and 70s. Diffidently brought back a few memories.

    My dad grew up on a farm near Sheridan. My entire family on his side went to the Sheridan a school and are buried in the Sheridan Cemetery. Grandma’s family too was from Worth County and are all buried in the Isadora Cemetery. Sheridan is named after CW General Sheridan. The Sheridan School closing was a sad day for that community and really did kill off the community.

    Hey Coach.Worth's O.K. I like that bandstand, I'd gig there. That long school is cool.That upright piano is the tallest I've ever seen.Prohibition was a bad idea. That playground ride has some stabilization issues, I'd give it a 5.4.From the sky, that place is sparkling clean. As the Dead said, 'Keep on trucking'

      @@TravelwithaWiseguy Christian County is just north of Stone as I am sure you know. I live in and grew up in Nixa. It's turned into a suburb of the small city of Springfield so it's probably grown too much given your particular content in your vids. It would have been more down your alley 30+ years ago. However, Highlandville to the south, Hurley to the southwest, Sparta and Oldfield to the east, and Clever (growing rapidly though) and Billings to the east. Those are more your preferences along with quite a bit of others here and there. Riverdale or what's left of it is just south of Nixa.

    Good golly John, I forgot to leave a comment but an ad came up and I lost it and then I got busy and just now have a chance to comment. This sure was an interesting trip but is Worth County the only county with the least population? Seems Kansas has more out in the western part of the state. None the less this was a beautiful trip and the dog was sooo adorable. I love dogs and live with two, my brother's and mine. Where are we going Sunday? A Sunday drive would be nice. Oh well it must be a surprise. Happy trails to you and God bless.

      ​@@TravelwithaWiseguy The back section was once a different rural school, the Willhite school, that stood a couple miles east and a bit north of Oxford. When they consolidated the rural schools in 1952, it was added to the north side of the Oxford school. Another area school, the Concord school was auctioned off, and was moved to Oxford and turned into a residence. It is on the east side of the road, the house you show at 5:04 in your video. Three old schools shown in about five seconds of video!
