Schefflin School students

Title

Schefflin School students

Description

Black and white image of a group of students standing outside of their school with their instructor, identified in museum records as Reverend Nitz. One young woman at the left side of the picture wears pants, a still unusual clothing choice for girls of this era. The town of Schefflin, for which the Cornelius-Schefflin Road is named, was a small crossing town, used by the Tillamook Railroad. The original founders were brothers, Effingham and Albert Schieffelin, in the 1890s. Sadly, their community did not fare as well as the one founded by their brother, Edward, today known as Tombstone, Arizona.
