DAR emblem - Great Grandfather John Jacob Walter, Great Great Grandfather John Conrad Bobb 1870 census as M.H. Walters,Union, Fulton, Indiana 1880 - Union, Fulton, Indiana PRAIRIE GROVE SCHOOL By Shirley Willard Ruth Pownall (Mrs. Loyd) Rouch stated that Prairie Grove School was started by her grandfather, Matthew Hale Walters, about 1870 and he taught the first year free. He taught at Dewey one-room school in Wayne Township, riding horseback to school. He quit teaching at Dewey in order to start Prairie Grove. His little daughters, Emma and Mary, would have had to go to Scotland School, and Walters considered that too far for them to walk. So he went around to the other parents and got them to donate money to start a school. He named it Prairie Grove for the grove of trees standing on the flat prairie. At first they held school in an existing building; later they built a school. |
