Does anyone know any of the history of Bunch School around Elmer, Missouri? It was probably a one room schoolhouse back in the early 1900's. My Grandmother spoke of it a lot in her diary, but I can't seem to find any info. on it.

Thanks

A search shows the Bunch Country School it was located in Macon County near Elmer and Barnesville Missouri. Check along Hwy 3 N. of Callo (N. of the intersection of MO Rt. J & MO Hwy 3) or Latitude: 39.93583 Longitude: -92.60444


According to this article the Bunch School is still standing. I've not driven up there to verify.

Bunch is a family name that goes back pre-civil war in Macon County, MO.
