The Lost Is Found! The Story of Carrollton Schools Continues

On October 27, 2016, I posted a newspaper article about the history of Carrollton (Kentucky) High School. Later, on a loose page from Sarah's scrapbooks, I found this continuation of that article.

While the first part of the newspaper article is mainly about the 1880s and '90s (which is when our scrapbooker Sarah Eva Howe attended school in Carrollton), this part moves into the early 1900s. Included are the names of teachers and administrators at all grade levels in the schools. 

I've transcribed the names for the sake of those doing online searches for their ancestors.


1911-1912
  • G. H. Wells, superintendent
  • C. F. Dunn, principal
  • Mae C. Wetherill, instructor
  • Carrie B. Moreland, 8th grade
  • Cora M. Banta, 7th grade
  • Mrs. E. J. Seppenfield, 6th grade
  • Josephine Larafelet (?), 4th grade
  • Ruth Salyers, 3rd grade
  • Charlotte Roberts, 2nd grade
  • Ethel M. Mellican, 1st grade


1913-1914
  • W. F. O'Donnell, superintendent
  • J. H. Way, principal
  • Mae C. Wetherill, instructor
  • Emma Julia Kipping, 8th grade
  • Nannie Lavelle, 7th grade
  • Mrs. E. J. Seppenfield, 6th grade
  • Anna Shepherd, 5th grade
  • Ruth Salyers, 4th grade
  • Cora M. Banta, 3rd grade
  • Dorothy Adkinson, 2nd grade
  • Clara Logeman, 1st grade
  • Maude Johnson, 1st grade
 
1915-1916

Marion C. Beecher and Lillie Mae Powers are added to the list, and  Mae C. Wetherill, Emma Julia Kipping, and Dorothy Adkinson are not included.
