Description
The earliest documents associated with the school at Churchville relate to the outfitting of the school house, rather than its construction. On November 21, 1867, the Freedmen’s Bureau assistant commissioner for Maryland and Delaware, General E. M. Gregory, issued Special Order 58, ordering bureau quartermaster Samuel Wright to supply the school at Churchville with desks. Accordingly, on December 5, 1867, Wright wrote to Nathaniel Cooper, an African-American resident of Churchville and trustee of the school, asking for the size of the school room and the number of desks required. Cooper responded enthusiastically on December 8, telling Wright that the room was 16 by 16 feet, but he neglected to specify the number of desks needed. “In About Tow Weeks we will Be Redey,” he wrote. Cooper also asked Wright when a teacher might be sent.
