I am looking for any information that anyone might have on Pine Twp. School, in Benton County, Indiana.
I am interested in pictures of the school, old yearbooks, or any other items that might have to do with the school.
Please email me with any information.
Thank you,
Yvonne Keech

Each year the Benton Central History Club does considerable research on a topic and develops, prints and sells a calendar related to that ($5.00 each). The 1999 calendar was on area schools. You can find out more info by contacting the sponsor Corey Robb crobb@bison.benton.k12.in.us

The club's webpage is at http://www.benton.k12.in.us/bc/ec/History/history.html

I do have a couple of the calendars around here somewhere and I know Corey still has some that he might be willing to sell. They can't part with their old yearbooks, but they might be able to copy some pages for you. They are trying to create an archive of Benton County photos on Zip disks to preserve County history.

Yvonne,
If you are still looking for information on Pine Twp. Schools, I have "ancient" history. I have a book about Benton Co. Schools published in 1906. So there is information about forming Pine Twp schools starting at 1840 to 1906. It lists trustees, advisory boards, teachers, school buildings and locations, costs, etc. The only picture is of a one room school named the Connerton School which was operating in 1906 I believe. If any of this is of interest to you please contact me.

Surnames: Conarton, Connerton
I know this thread is several years old, but if this is still available, I would be interested in what you have.
My family is connected to Pine TWP. They were the Conartons (also spelled Connerton at times)and I believe the father passed away around that time.

I am sorry that I have not checked back here in a few years. I missed most of the messages, but just received a notice of someone commenting on this post, so here I am.
My interest in the school, was that my brother owns the property that it used to set on. He lived in the Gymnasium for awhile, which is the only building still standing on the property. I was interested in information for him. I will have to check and see if he has found out anything more over the past few years.

Great-Thanks for your reply. With the town being where my ancestors came from plus the name being pretty much the same, the email got my attention.

Either way, I'm interested in the history since it's a small community and I do have a connection either way.
Thanks,
Marjorie

I drive past the old gym/Pine School location occasionally when I visit back to my home town Fowler, Benton co. IN. The only pix I have are what I mentioned here a few years earlier. I'll be getting out that book in a few days if your still interested.

Margie, I sent you a personal email that I will get out the old school board book in a few days and will post what I can find. I do not have any Pine twp info except that is my home county. I do go back to Fowler occasionally and would possibly do some research at the Fowler Library.
