Ogden School Before 1901
Submitted

Tintype was passed to, Nancy Blake
Thompson, daughter-in-law of the late Fannie Kelly Thompson (born in
Liddieville), whose mother was Carrie Ogden Kelly (born in
Liddieville), the daughter of William Tigner Ogden (also the father of
Lydia, whose nickname of Liddie was given to the post office /
community, Liddieville).
Was told that Carrie Ogden is in the photo.
For a possible 'hint' of the vintage of the photo (near the turn of the
century??): Caroline Bondveal (Carrie, or sometimes Bonnie) Ogden
was born in 1889.
It is my opinion this is Big Creek School opened on May 16, 1881, with
Wiley G. Doyal as the teacher. An old report gives the names of
the
pupils as Newton Williams, Alma Williams, Retta Wright, Houston Shelly,
Fannie L. Humble, Maurice Ogden, Carrie Ogden, Liddie Ogden, Emma Lea,
Anna Lea, Carrie McKenzie, Lewis Slaughter, William Humble, Katie L.
Walls,
Lydia A. Walls, Harry E. McKenzie, John W. Slaughter and Lizzie Eaton.
