The Chenango County Historian’s office is most fortunate to have in their files the “school register” for the above district which will be documented in the next several articles. This

“School Register” covers years 1844 to 1864. As noted on the map of Lincklaen, you will see this district schoolhouse is located very near the Cortland and Madison County lines. The late Marion Poole described it as being located on County Road 12 at the junction of the road to Cuyler. It was always red until it became a residence, at which time it was a lovely green. When this information was forwarded to me by the former historian Joy Barber, she noted it was still a residence in 2009.
