This is a photo of the elementary school students at Teeterville, Windham Township, circa 1904. Researcher Paul Billo of Shakespeare, Ontario, emailed us this photo scan 2 Aug 2010.
Paul also provided a scan of his grandmother's handwritten list of names on the back of the photo, and his transcription of 1901 Census of Windham names, birth dates and parents of those in the photo.

The original print belongs to Paul, who inherited it from his grandmother, Leita Nicholson Billo, who appears in the photo.

The photo was originally dated 1901 and we had no reason to question that until we examined student ages. We now believe the photo was taken circa 1904 when several students would have been more age appropriate to attend elementary school. We assume it was taken in the Fall due to the leaves visible in the photo at the students' feet.

The children in this photo presumably have all passed away. While the students arrived pre-identified, we hope to learn more about each of them. If one is your ancestor and you have biographical information to share, please email it to the webmaster who will add it to the appropriate web page.

[Leita's handwritten list spells Winegarden without the first e, a variation that doesn't appear elsewhere in Norfolk's historical record. We have corrected it herein.]
