What Our Patrons Have to Say...
Thank you for your coverage and story on Ketchen School. I found two small discrepancies.
The two room school housed graded 1-4 in the old building and grade 5-8 in the newer building. The last teachers that taught there were A.J. Senters and Herman Hopper (my father). They taught there until G.R. Hampton was opened.
I am wondering whether you know any genealogists who specalize in Knox County? I am looking to have some research done and I don't live nearby. Thank you for your time and effort.

Hello I would like to talk to someone about volunteering. I moved to the area not to long ago but love history. I work for Knox county ems and i have several days during the week in which I could help. I could explain in more detail about me and my situation if needed. Thank you very much.
I would like to know your days/hours of operation. I plan to visit in mid-July for family history research. Thanks, please advise.
