A forest fire destroyed Bearinger's log schoolhouse, known as Grace School, in 1919. The following year this structure was built of locally gathered fieldstones --no doubt chosen as a material resistant to fire. This building served Bearinger Township students until 1937, when the North Allis and Bearinger districts began transporting students to Onaway. In 1957 the township purchased the school and converted it to a township hall.
Visit Instructions:Take a photo of your GPS at the marker. We'd prefer a photo of you with your GPS, but we realize that sometimes that's just not possible or preferable.
Also include a bit about your visit to the marker.
NEW: Instructions for logging Missing Marker Visits.
If the Marker is missing, but still listed here, you must provide a photo of you at the actual item historically honored. (This should be the waymark's "default" image). Indicate in your log that you took your photo at the Historical Location instead of the marker, because the marker was missing. Please also still include a bit about your visit to the site.
