Thoughts and Observations Schools in Lincoln and Woodstock Prior to 1900

From the writings of Ida Tilton Sawyer on the history of Woodstock, I learned about the school district system of the early years and where these dis-tricts were.

In 1805, the state passed a law creating a school district system. Towns would estab-lish districts in populated areas around town, then schoolhouses would be con-structed within each area. Each district would oversee their own school. Over time, as populations changed, districts would be added or discontinued. Also, some schools were relocated within these districts, either by hauling the building from one spot to an-other, or by rebuilding on a different site.

The school districts in Woodstock (These can be found on the 1860 Grafton County Map):

District I, also referred to as the Center dis-trict, was located in lower Woodstock village. The first school house was east of where the railroad tracks are now. In 1886 Woodstock Center School was built as a single story structure in the same area, but on the higher level, along Daniel Webster Highway. In 1909 a sec-ond floor was added to this building. It continued to serve as an elementary school until the mid 1950’s. It still exists, though as a dwelling, located immedi-ately south of the Pemi Valley Church and Minister’s home.

District II, usually known as the Tannery District, was located in the vicinity of

Mirror Lake Road. The original school house on the south side of the road, was replaced by one built in 1908 on the north side of the road. This last school house in this district was later converted into a dwelling. School teacher Henrietta Towers lived in that residence for many years.

District III was at the north end of town and stood just north of the cement bridge. This was later moved to School Street. When a larger school was built in 1890 this school house was sold and turned into a dwelling and it still exists at the corner of School Street and Bell Street and is now owned by the McSally family.

District IV was in the Mountain Park neighborhood, on Eastside Road. This schoolhouse was the subject of much controversy, as told in a story by Wood-stock correspondent, Justus Conrad. It seems that residents disagreed about the preferred location of the building. Deci-sions were made to leave it where it was, but the losing party got their oxen and moved the building in the dead of night. For the complete story, and more inter-esting information about this building, come by the Moosilauke Public Library. After it had served its purpose as a schoolhouse, the building was sold and relocated to property at the top of the hill. A house was recently built near this site by Jim and Susan Young.

District V was on Gordon’s Hill and the original school house was replaced in 1909 by one on Lost River Road.

District VI was on Mt. Cilley. The first (Continued on page 4)


From an article by Justus Conrad, published in the early 1920’s:

In this article, Conrad writes about coming across an old record book containing the ex-pense records of the schools from 1828 to 1884. At that time, local residents bid on boarding teachers and supplying fire wood for the schools.

In 1828, the town set aside $15 for school expenses. Benjamin Fox was the lowest bid-der for boarding the teacher at seventy-five cents per week, and Thomas Vincent fur-nished wood at sixty-five cents per week. Of course at that time school was only in ses-sion for a few weeks in the fall and a few weeks in the spring.

In 1830, lowest bidder B. M. Barron boarded Jane Fox for fifty-five cents per week. The wood to heat the school was also put out to bid with the four lowest bidders for two cord each being, Tim Glovier, fifty-nine cents, B. Fox, fifty-six cents, Steven Vincent, fifty-six cents, and again, Tim Glovier, fifty-seven cents.

Regarding teacher’s pay, in 1828 this might have been about one dollar per week. In 1884, when $400 was set aside by the town for school expenses, Mina James was paid $36.00 for teaching nine weeks of school and Mary Smart was paid $50.00 for teach-ing ten weeks of school.

From the Statistical School Report 1875 – Town of Woodstock

In 1875 a report submitted to the State from Woodstock shows that the town maintained only five districts at that time. District VI

(Continued on page 5)

teacher was Betsy Selingham, and some teachers that followed her were: Sarah Pinkham, Delia Pinkham and Rosamond Vincent. School terms ran about eight weeks a year. By the 1870’s this district had been abandoned. (The school was located about 3 ¼ miles up Cilley Mt. Road on the north side of the road. This is now National Forest land and, ac-cording to Vin Osgood, the foundation of the school house can be found by travel-ing up the trail to crossing of Beaver Brook, then 1/8 mile to foundation of Syms Sawyer house, then 7/8 mile to foundation of Royal Smith house, then a further 7/8 mile to the school house. )

The school districts in Lincoln:

District I was on Daniel Webster Highway. According to the 1860 Grafton County map, one school house for the area was located about two and a half miles north of the Lincoln/Woodstock town line.

District II included the East Branch area as well as the west side of the river just north of the Lincoln/Woodstock town line. School houses were located at dif-ferent times south of Clark’s on either side of the road.

District III was an area called Lincoln Gore, located on the west side of Mt. Kinsman. This area was annexed to Landaff in 1845 and was in the part of Landaff which later became Easton. This was the first school to operate in Lincoln, but as it soon was not part of Lincoln, we do not find it mentioned in later reports from Lincoln.

(Continued from page 3)


was no doubt dropped as the Mt. Cilley set-tlement had been abandoned by then. This report shows that 115 students, four years of age and upward, were enrolled in Woodstock schools. There were 57 boys and 58 girls. Also, there were 7 students under the age of six and 8 students over the age of sixteen.

Five different female teachers taught these students. One was a first time teacher, two had previously taught at the same school, and three of the five had attended Normal school. The report asked, “How many teach-ers have properly made out and returned the School Register?” The answer written in is, “None perfectly. All will ‘pass muster’.” The average monthly wage was $23.00, and the average number of weeks school was in ses-sion was only a little more than ten.

The Gazetteer of the State of New Hamp-shire published in 1823 reports no schools in Lincoln and three schools in Peeling (Woodstock). The Gazetteer of Grafton County, N. H. published in 1886 reports that in 1885 Lincoln had two schools and Wood-stock had five schools.

From the Report of the Board of Edu-cation of the Town of Woodstock for the year 1886. (By this time the State had discontinued the district system in favor of having all schools in a town under the su-pervision of a town school board, hoping to provide a more equable education.)

In 1886, Center school (District I) taught by Miss Annie E. Abbott met for a nine week spring term from May 3 to July 3 with 26 students, and a ten week fall term from Sep-tember 7 to November 19 with 28 students.

(Continued from page 4) In the north part of Woodstock (District III), the school met, taught by Miss Kate Emerson of Campton, for five weeks from May 3 to June 11 with 25 students. The ten week fall term, taught by Miss Alice Clark, met from September 13 to November 19 with 25 stu-dents.

A school on the east side of the river (District IV) met for ten weeks from September 6 to November 12 with 9 students, taught by Miss Millicent Morse.

A school in the south part of town joined with Thornton for two terms, one for five weeks and one for eight weeks. Eight of the students were from Woodstock. It appears that the Tannery School (District II) was not in operation this year but it is definitely back in operation a few years later.

Who were some of the teachers?

Eliza Jane Fox

Ida Sawyer wrote extensively about one young woman who began her career as a teacher the day before she turned fifteen years old. Eliza Jane was the daughter of Benjamin and Eleanor (Rowe) Fox born around 1845. As other young women would do into the 1890’s, Eliza Fox taught at local schools and alternately attended New Hamp-ton School as time allowed in order to get a diploma.

In 1872, Eliza Jane Fox married Curtis Lean-der Parker, and as was the custom, no doubt left teaching upon her marriage, but kept busy on school committees and became School Superintendent in 1878. After Curtis Parker died in 1902, Eliza married Mr. Bun-



ton.

Eliza and Curtis Parker had a son in 1880, Leander Fox Parker. Leander married Clarice Clark, daughter of Daniel and Sa-brina Hunt Clark, and on 29 March 1920 their daughter, Eleanor Parker was born. Many of you will recall that Eleanor devoted her life to education, and in her retirement did much to research the early history of Woodstock and share what she knew.

Alice, Apha and Charlotte Clark

Alice, Apha and Charlotte Clark were the eld-est daughters of Daniel and Sabrina Hunt Clark. All three taught during the 1880’s and early 1890’s in various Woodstock schools. At one point Apha Clark’s students in the North Woodstock school included three of her siblings: Harry C., Charles W. and Clarice V. Clarice V. Clark was the mother of Eleanor Parker as mentioned in the previous paragraph. Harry C. Clark mar-ried Lena May Doane and was the father of Grace Deborah Clark . This daughter, known as Deborah, married James H. Batchelder 3rd, mentioned in the article on the Alpine in this newsletter.

Clara Jackman

Clara Jackman was born 7 January 1865 in Woodstock, daughter of Royal C. and Eliza (Gray) Jackman. She attended Woodstock schools, then taught here. In 1889 she taught the spring term at the North Wood-stock school, and in the fall she went to Littleton to teach, at the same time attending Littleton High School. In the late winter of 1890, having graduated from Littleton High School, she went to Plymouth to attend Nor-

(Continued from page 5) mal School “so that she may prepare herself to be a better teacher.” She graduated from Normal School in winter of 1892, taught in Thonton, Northwood and Hillsboro before marrying Noah W. Goss 14 Feb 1894 and leaving teaching.

Alice Carey Stickney (my grandmother)

Alice Carey Stickney was born 11 August 1868 in Campton, daughter of Samuel Noyes and Sarah Ada (Smith) Stickney. Af-ter attending Campton schools, she attended New Hampton school and taught in various towns. In the spring of 1893 she applied to the Woodstock school board to teach at the Center school in lower Woodstock. Her let-ter of acceptance to school board member, Fred M. Gilman, reads as follows:

Warren, NH 4-6-93 Mr. Gilman, Yours rec’d. I would say in reply I will accept the school. I suppose you furnish conveyance one way. When does the school commence? Respectfully A. C. Stickney

Alice taught a term in the spring beginning late April, ending in early June, and one be-ginning early September, ending in mid De-cember. Alice did not teach after that. Dur-ing the year 1893, when she was not teaching in Woodstock and was living back at her par-ents home in Campton, she kept up a corre-spondence with Mr. Gilman which she care-fully saved over the years. The last letter she sent follows:



Campton, N. H. 1-3-94 My Dear Fred, One week from today we will be married my Dear Fred. I hope you will be happy then…, My Dear Fred I will be so glad to see you, and after one week I will be with my Fred always. We will be so happy won’t we. I know we will for we must. Goodbye My Fred. Lots of love Alice

Alice Stickney married Fred Milan Gilman on 10 January, 1894. They moved into their home on Eastside Road where they raised a family of five: Mildred Alice who married Newton Baston, Fred Sam who married Florena Russell, Edwin Carl who married Edith Russell, Harriette Lenore who married Nathaniel Hartwell and Alberta who married Floyd Avery.

Inez Eva Guernsey

Inez Eva Guernsey was born 22 November 1862, daughter of Levi E. and Aurilla (Dyer) Guernsey. (This is the same Guernsey family written about in the last issue of this news-letter.) In the fall on 1881 she taught at the District 4, or Mountain Park, school in Woodstock. On 25 May 1882 she married George F. Gordon and they had four sons, Raymond, Kenneth, Clyde and Roger. George was the son of Enoch M. and Martha Gordon and grandson of Enoch and Lydia (Sargent) Gordon who settled in Peeling (later Woodstock) with their large family be-fore 1830. Many of the Gordon’s living is the area now are descended from Enoch and Lydia.


Future Articles

I had originally planned to cover schools through to 1900 in this article, but so much happened in the 1890’s that I will cover that period in a later article. With the sudden and rapid growth in Lincoln and the coming necessity for towns to provide high schools, many changes occur between 1890 and 1910.

I will continue to have more articles on area schools through the decades. Think about what information or pictures you might have around and let us know.

I welcome your ideas for future articles as well as follow up thoughts on articles that have already appeared. Don’t hesitate to get in touch.

If you have any information to share, please contact Barbara Avery at 745-8845 or email me at [email protected].

This article could not have been written without help from various sources. Vin Os-good gave me access to the extensive re-search of his grandmother, Ida Tilton Saw-yer, who, in her lifetime, compiled a great amount of information about the town of Woodstock. The Woodstock Town Office let me look at their earliest Town and School Reports. The Woodstock Correspondent ar-ticles published in the Plymouth Record provided an ongoing record of the school happenings from 1887 forward. And Joe Boyle provided me with even earlier articles published in the Littleton Journal and the White Mountain Republic.

The Alpine Then & Now

The Alpine was operated by the Batchelder Family from its first year of operation in 1891 to the death of James H. Batchelder, Jr. in 1967. James H. Batchelder, Sr. was born in Exeter, New Hampshire 1 August 1856, the son of Nathaniel and Elizabeth (Tuttle) Batchelder. He married Alice M. Harding on 23 October 1884 and they had two sons born in Exeter. James H. Jr. was born in October of 1885, and Charles H. was born in June 1887. The following quotes from the Ply-mouth Record trace the very early years of the Alpine House.

“Miss Sarah B. Fay has sold the house and plateau known as the Dearborn house, and occupied by W. F. Butler, to J. H. Batchelder of Exeter for $5000.” -September 7, 1889

“W. F. Butler has bought E. A. Sawyer’s place and will move soon and Mr. Batchelder of Exeter will move into the house Mr. Butler now occupies.” –April 26, 1890

“Mrs. Batchelder and two children ar-rived last Monday.”-May 24, 1890

“Elmore Whipple, with help from Fran-conia, is doing the plastering on the “New Alpine House.”- April 18, 1891

“The Alpine House (new) and cottage are filling quite rapidly, while the North Woodstock, Russell, Cascade, Innette, Mountain View, Fairview, Parker and other houses are none of them without a fair installment of city guests.”- July 11, 1891

“The Alpine, the new hotel at North Woodstock, is pleasantly located on an elevated site and commands an exten-

sive view of the Pemigewasset Valley and the mountains to the north. It is within four miles of the famous Flume and nine miles from the Old Man of the Mountains. Agassiz Basin is but a short walk away and the many smaller points of interest that are near make it an attractive place for the summer tourist.

“Mr. Jas. H. Batchelder, the proprietor, is a thorough hotel man, and although this is the first season that the house has been opened every room is taken and many of the boarders are located at the cottages connected with the hotel. The new coach which has been recently pur-chased is a source of enjoyment to the summer boarders. Nearly every morn-ing it is driven off with a merry party who return in the afternoon or evening ready to afford entertainment for the others with an account of their day’s exploits.

“Mr. S. M. Briggs of Boston, a well known artist, is among the guests at the Alpine this summer. Mr. Briggs thinks there is no place equal to this mountain region for scenery, and this sentiment is found universal, even among those of a less artistic temperament.. “ - August 8, 1891

“The new bowling alley and billiard hall at the Alpine are completed.”- July 22, 1893

“The guests at the Alpine enjoyed the first musicale of the season on Monday. Music was furnished by Gould’s orches-tra of Newton.”- July 25, 1896

According to Bryant F. Tolles’s The Grand Resort Hotels of the White Mountains,

“In 1915-16, James Batchelder, Sr., as-sisted by his son Charles, undertook an ambitious building program that…. more than doubled the size of their establish-ment, adding public space and increas-ing total guest capacity to 200.”

After James Sr. died 6 April 1919, James Jr., known to all as “Harry,” took over the opera-tion of the hotel. In 1926, Harry’s brother Charles developed Camp City in lower Woodstock. Camp City later became the Jack O’Lantern Resort. The Batchelder fam-


ily also ran a business in Exeter, New Hampshire as well as properties and busi-nesses in Florida and New Mexico.

From The Batchelor Family News-Journal –July 1974 in an article about this resort, they write the following about the later years:

“…, the resort was replete with golf course, and putting green, clay tennis courts, an outdoor swimming pool and facilities for badminton, shuffleboard and horseback riding. The surrounding countryside presented unlimited oppor-tunities for mountain climbing, hiking, hunting and fishing. Inside, the Alpine had a tastefully fur-nished lobby and sun parlor, a large ball-room and spacious bedrooms. Music for dancing and concerts was furnished by a hotel orchestra.

Shortly after the death of James Batchelder Jr., the Alpine was sold by his heirs. That was in the 1960’s. It has since been torn down and only a golf course is left to testify to the fact that thousands of people spent happy vaca-tion days at a resort built on the spot before the turn of the century.”

Harry had one son by his first wife, Mary Elizabeth Glasson of Colorado, where Harry attended college. This son, James Henry



Batchelder 3rd, born 14 Oct 1915, in New Mexico, would go on to marry Wood-stock’s own Grace Deborah Clark on 6 December 1940. James devoted his life to military service and he and Deborah returned upon retirement to Deborah’s family property, the Clark Farm off Lost River Road in Woodstock.

Some of my memories of the Alpine—Jack Richardson

My first visit to the Hotel Alpine was when my brother, Don, worked as a bell hop in 1948 and 1949. I followed him around as he ran the elevator, carried suitcases and delivered ice. I told Mr. Batchelder that I wanted to be a bell-hop too. He said, “When you turn 16, write me a letter the winter before, ask-ing for a job. I’ll be glad to hire you.” (They really liked Don.) I came to work at the hotel in mid June 1955. I was 17. The hotel wasn’t open yet so we cleaned, painted, varnished, weeded, and polished for what seemed like half the summer. The hotel opened on the last weekend of June. My salary was $25 a month. That included board and room. Tips were the big bucks. The average was about $11 a shift. We were on duty every day for a morning, afternoon or evening. There were three of us. If we needed a whole day off, we could swap with another bellhop. One of my favorite stories was: The guest rooms had two doors, a main solid door and a louver door on the corridor side that latched with a hook and eye latch on the inside and outside. That way you could latch yourself in and have a cross ventilation. One night a mischievous kid locked all the outside latches on one floor. The next morning the enunciator board in the lobby was lighting up like a Christmas tree as guests discovered that they were locked in. Harry Batchelder’s last and longest married wife was Natalie, from Plymouth, Massachusetts. They wintered in Florida and enjoyed their yacht, a motor-sailor. The Alpine was for sale for several years, as Harry’s health declined. Around the time of his death, it was sold to Ted Barrows for about $120,000 in the late sixties. Mr. Barrows ran the hotel for one summer. Duncan Riley was the manager. The hotel needed so much updating and repairs that it never reopened again. It was torn down over the next few years and the rest was burned during the winter. I fell in love with the town during those years I worked at t he Alpine and I always wanted to come back. I was lucky enough to purchase “Unit One Alpine Village” in 1984, just about where the front door of the hotel was, and my wife, Claire and I are living there, happily ever after. I found out at a later date, that a classmate of mine at Kimball Union Academy in Meriden, New Hampshire, Allan Swanson, became an engineer. Eventually, Swanson, Tampozi and Nash purchased the Alpine property. They teamed with Bradgate Corporation to Build Alpine Village, Alpine Lodge and the Alpine Clubhouse.


The Alpine property was sold to Ted Barrows and others in the late 1960’s and the hotel was torn down a few years later. The golf course continued for a few more years after the hotel was gone. In the late seventies, Nash, Tamposi and Swanson purchased the property and be-gan to plan the first large condominium development in Woodstock.



Photos on the opposite page show some of the 210 town house style condominiums at Alpine Village.

Right photo shows part of the Alpine Lodge Building which houses 20 residential condo-miniums on each of the upper two floors and ten commer-cial/residential condominiums on the first floor.

Hotel Franconia Thanks to Joe Boyle, we have an answer, with picture, as to when the Hotel Franconia burned. It was May 7, 1950. Also, Betty Hyde has stories of her time working there as a waitress.

Guernsey Family

Kris Pastoriza of Easton passed along some items from the 1893 Sweetser’s White Mountains regarding Levi Guernsey:

Under “The Flume House”: Levi E. Guernsey is the best guide in this vicinity. He lives south of the Flume House. His rates are $3.00 a day…. The Georgianna Falls may be visited from Guernsey’s (and under his guidance) a many gabled cottage 1 m. S. of the Flume House.

Under “Western Pemigewasset”: Young Pollard and Levi E. Guernsey are the best guides for this region.

Regarding more recent generations of Guernseys, I heard from several people who knew of Ernest and Grace Guernsey’s children, George and Flossina, as they grew up in Lincoln. George, who was born in 1916, married Lois Grace Gibbs in 1938. At age 19, Flossina, born in 1911, married Robert Frank Nolette who was born in Canada. They had a daughter Grace and a son Robert who grew up in Lincoln.
