Approaching rather rapidly is the holiday season for 2010 and originally the thought would be to discontinue the series for the season and resume after the January 1, 2011. How time does fly when is seems only yesterday that we were approaching the twenty-first century and the concern was would the computer systems throughout the world accept the change from reading 1999 to the year 200, more commonly known as Y2K. Well all is well that ends well!

As this article is #97 in this ongoing series and if all goes as planned, the first article for the New Year will be #100, wish me luck! There were 315 districts in Chenango County when the educational system was put in effect, so as the saying goes “stay tuned.”

The district so named above is described in the boundary lines researched by Mildred Folsom in her book “Town of Greene - Rural School Districts” p.4 as being bordered by the properties of Reuben Peck, Zachariah Bradley, David Winchell, Samuel Carpenter and David Bradley. This early district came into existence in 1828 and was finally closed in 1935, nearly a century of service for education. Quite a remarkable part of the Town of Greene’s history!
