Fractional District No. 3 School

Seneca Township children attended school here on the Wilson Farm as early as 1857. As school inspector, Simon Wilson oversaw construction and maintenance of schools for fifteen years. In 1899, his son Charles sold land to the district, and this school was built. Students here received grades for deportment in addition to subjects like agriculture and penmanship. The school closed when Morenci schools consolidated in 1955.
