Shute School

SHUTE SCHOOL
Another photo from Carol Leary.  She writes:
This is another picture of Shute school that belonged to my mother. Marie Gullett Bertram taught at this school in 1919, 1920 and 1921. It was her first teaching job. She taught 44 years in and around Ford County.

 

Location of the Shute School. 1884 and 1990. Still looks like a building on the plat in 1990. Did someone use the school as a home? I don't see a building on the 2016 plat.

The Rural Schools in Lyman Township

School #1 – Woodward School, in Section 2
School #2 – Smith School, in Sect. 4
School #3 – Lake Shore School, in Sect. 6
School #4 – in Sect. 20 (not on the Survey map)
School #5 – in the town of Roberts (not on the Survey map)
School #6 – Larkin School, in Sect. 14, still exists as a residence
School #7 – Zahn School, in Sect. 35
School #8 – Minch School, in Sect. 33. District #43
School #9 – Schute School, in Sect. 32. District #44

I wonder if school #4 in Section 20 might be the Roeder School, District #42 (#42 according to the sale bill for the property)?
