Anniston Star November 13, 1957
The annual homecoming was observed at Oak Grove Methodist Church Sunday four 
miles from Lineville. Hundreds of former students and several of the former 
teachers returned for the event. The beautiful rock Methodist church elevated on 
a high hill among the colorful, autumn trees was the scene of the activity. A 
large number of former students at the Oak Grove School attended from other 
states and all over Alabama to reminisce their ear her school days and community 
activity here. The Oak Grove school consolidated with the Lineville schools in 
1924, but the wholesome school spirit remains among the citizens of the Oak 
Grove Community who have actively supported the Lineville Schools where their 
children now attend. The one teacher, one room frame, unpainted schoolhouse was 
located one-fourth mile from the church. The all-day event included addresses by 
former teachers and students and devotional services. The group enjoyed eating 
their lunch under the beautiful trees similar to the way they had done when 
attended school there more than 60 years ago......
