The early years of public education constitute an interesting study. Where was that "Jefferson Street Public School" which was located somewhere on today's Liberty street located? The 1855 article is accompanied by a portrait of Dr. Skelton from my "NOTABLE PERSONS" and "SCHOOLS, MISCELLANEOUS" folders.
My apologies for the blurry text in the article;
it was a black and white scan rather than grayscale.
Tom - I believe Dr. Charles Skelton is buried in Hamilton Twsp. at either the Hamilton Square Presbyterian or Baptist Church.

He is interred at the Hamilton Square Presbyterian Cemetery.
