History
Schoolhouses
The first school house in Buchanan District was built on the northwest corner of the Edward Braden farm, known as the Ira Bare place.[2] After the original schoolhouse was abandoned, a new one was built in the southwest corner of what was known as the "old Eagon place." and last used for school in 1851.[2] A new school house was built three-eighths of a mile south of the second building and replaced by a brick structure in 1896, and was in use circa 1916.[2]
