A Legacy of Education

 

George Washington Oyler, son of George Oyler Sr., is remembered today for his long legacy of service as an educator in Hamilton County, Ohio. Using funds from his father, he founded a small community school in Storrs Township in 1854. This school became the Twenty-First District School in 1870, and later named the Oyler School. The building was recently renovated, and was the subject of a documentary. It serves as a focal point for the local community today.

I am now shifting from the research into the Oyler family of Kent, England and Hamilton County, Ohio, to another branch of the tree.
