| Thumbnail | Description & Credit | ![]() | Interior view of classroom showing west wall. Photograph by Jack E. Boucher, October 1974. (Reproduction Number: HABS, WYO,7-SOPAC,19-6) The settlement of the West embodied in the image of a one-room frontier schoolhouse reminds us of how sparsely populated many areas of the country were in the 1800s. This 1910 building was actually the third school in South Pass City, the previous two having burned, and remained in use until 1946. The Wyoming Recreation Commission furnished this building as a typical frontier schoolhouse.Credit: Library of Congress. |
