First Known School, In The Greater Arley Community, Bethel School The community's first four settlers homesteaded land near this site in 1832. The little log, schoolhouse, just 18ft. sq., was built in 1874. The land, given by L.F. Hembree, is the site of Bethel Cemetery. With no heat, a dirt floor, and split-log benches, it played a major role in the development of Winston County. The first teacher, Isham P. Gibson, later became tax assessor and probate judge. A later teacher, John J. Curtis, became probate judge. One of the first students, Rev.Geo.W. Gibson, was the community's first historian and the county's first farm demonstration agent. From it's earliest days, the little schoolhouse, also served as a church. AARON, B.L. 10/3/1896 - 9/1901 AARON, Hariett Reece 1864 - 1946 AARON, inf. of Thomas and Hariett Aaron AARON, M.E.
