Richard Shantz’s mother, Stella Irvine, grew up in Brinston near Iroquois in Matilda Township. She went to the Ottawa Normal School and taught in the one-room school before the war. I'm looking for information about this school as well.
Today, I had the pleasure of speaking to the Rotary Club of Ottawa at the Marriott Hotel. After a delicious meal and my presentation, I signed books for some members. I learned that Gib Patterson went to Ellwood School on Bank Street where the Ledbury Apartments are now, across from Home Depot. If anyone has any information or pictures about this school in Gloucester Township, please let me know.
