Will County History

Will County Townships used to be dotted with one-room schoolhouses.

For example, this 1909 plat of Manhattan Township maps the location of several one-room schoolhouses:

Will County News was recently fortunate to be given a copy of a circa 1938 photo of a one-room schoolhouse in Manhattan Township.  It looks like this was a fairly small class.  I like the Will County Map hanging on the wall:
