1930s - 1960s

The Brownsville School was opened for the school year of 1922, and Aaron Robertson told me in 1950 that the Brownsville School was built with the lumber from the old Golden Rule School. He attended the new Golden Rule School with his brother Buck, Ty Fitzgerald, Carl Ray Shields, and many other youngsters of 1922.

The Brownsville School teacher was Ruth Bates. She was at the school from the beginning until the end, when it was closed in 1965. The little one-room schoolhouse was closed in 1965 and torn down in the early 1980s.
