Today Helen (Ireton) White emailed me stating one-room schoolhouses were the best places to be educated and be taught reading, writing and arithmetic. She and her three brothers and three sisters: Allan, Bobby, Barbara, Beverly, Dianne and John all attended S.S. No. 13 Drummond in Drummond Centre. Her cousins Glenn, Willie, Helene, Evelyn and Susan Ireton all went there as well. The school still exists and is now a private residence just off Highway 7. Helen is the girl seated second in the middle row with a white blouse on page 57. Please note the corrections: This picture is of S.S. No. 13 Drummond and not No. 19 and the names are as follows:
