White Oak School Is Where?!

I had a very interesting conversation with my uncle Jimmy Halstead this week.
He told me that the White Oak School (pictured a few posts below) was indeed the school John Wesley Basham taught in. Many years later Finley Basham (John Wesley Basham's son by 2nd wife Lucy Pack) told his wife he was taught in the school house and had a sentimental attachment to it.

According to Jim, Finley's wife had the school removed and transported to behind their home!

  1. Is this the same property located approximately 600 ft past and to the left of the Rhoda Anne Memorial Church? If so, my wife and I just purchased this property and are looking to find historic information regarding it.
