Slipstraw School - Chambers County, AL
(Click on image for larger view)
Slipstraw School was located about one mile SE of Stroud on the south side of present County Road 267, also known as the Stroud to Fredonia Road. Across the road from the school was a Congregational Christian Church known as Union Grove. That this school and church once even existed is known only to a few people who are currently interested in local history. The names of the students in this picture are lost to time but the teacher (standing in the center of the open doorway) is Marshall B. Hurst, born in 1836 and died in 1909.
