Independence School



I found this in my Greatgrandmother's things an old school souvenir from

1906-07. It lists 

student names, including my grandfather Earnest Swartz (the spelling adds a

z to the end our last name) and his brothers 

(Albert and George Swartz.) I have scanned the booklet if anyone 

is interested in images.



Sincerely, David Swart
