1858; FARMINGDALE SCHOOL


ONE OF THE VERY RARE ITEMS IN MY COLLECTION OF LOCAL HAMILTON TOWNSHIP HISTORY IS A LEDGER LISTING THE NAMES OF SOME OF HAMILTON'S VERY EARLIEST 19TH CENTURY PUBLIC SCHOOL STUDENTS. THIS IS A COPY OF PAGE ONE BEGINNING IN THE YEAR 1858. THE LEDGER LISTS THE SUPPLIES DISPENSED TO THE STUDENT, AND THE COST. IT HAS LISTINGS FROM 1850 TO THE EARLY 1870'S. FARMINGDALE IS BELIEVED TO BE THE OLDEST SCHOOL IN TODAY'S HAMILTON TOWNSHIP.
