PHOTO: Sharon Center School
Today's post is a photo from the Sharon Center School, a one room schoolhouse about 3 miles outside Shinglehouse, PA.
My grandmother, Ethel (Haynes) Mix, is the first girl from the left in the front row. To her left is Paul Gustin. The tall woman in the back row is the teacher.
Anybody know other names? How about the date?
(Gram was born in 1918 and looks to be maybe 7 or 8 (?) so maybe the late 20's? or early 30's?)
Mixed Genes is about genealogy... and more. Each blog post will share a tidbit of research I've discovered like pictures, notes, songs, and interesting stories.
About Me
- Dayton D. Mix
- I'm a husband, a dad, a son, a grandson, a pastor, & now a grandpa, too! Those are the basic hats I wear in my daily life. I was born & raised in rural Pennsylvania couple of miles from the New York border in a small town, Shinglehouse (Potter County). I struggle with my weight & my own quirks just like everyone else does. I became a United Methodist pastor in 1996 and was ordained in 2003. While I'm officially Methodist, I also consider myself a “charismatic” Christian, as well as an “evangelical”, although not everything identified with either of those labels fits me perfectly. I enjoy genealogy but seldom have time to do much with it. I like playing with eBay. I like to read, watch movies, camp, hike, and talk. I LOVE to write, but usually don't worry too much about formal grammar... instead choosing to write as I probably would speak. And even though I can spell pretty well, I'm a lousy typist, so be gracious. I update my blogs as often as I can, but I have a real life that demands me NOT being at the computer all the time... so there are dry spells!
