GREENWOOD In March, the more than 130-year-old building that once served as Greenwood’s Town Office and before that as a schoolhouse, was demolished.
The building was erected in the summer and fall of 1889, two years after the new road into Locke’s Mills was constructed. It started out as single room schoolhouse with only one teacher and a little less than 20 students, according to Local Historian Chris Dunham. In 1897, the school supervisor requested that another row of seats be put in the room as more students began to attend. That winter in 1897, 32 students attended the school.
Madeleine Rayner, 51, told an officer who found her slumped at the wheel of her VW Golf that she wanted to be dead because her children had called her a bad person .
