Morrell School - Barron and D Street

This is an old photo of Morrell School - Barron Avenue and D Street in Morrellville. Now the present location of St. Francis Church. Some members of my grandfather's family went there including his sister Margaret (Lenz) Gloor 1897 - 1967. She is the small child in front. Also on the picture is brother Albert Lenz and sister Lena (Lenz) Pittman.
This cardboard picture card was taken at their old house at 1313 B Street - this picture dates from around 1900. I have Margaret's old school book from Morrell School - 1909.
And the best page of all:
I just love stuff like this. The oldest inscription of this type I have is from 1876. I'll have to dig that out and post it.
