Marquette Historical Society

This school was located west of Marquette on Cedar Road and operated until in the early 1940s(?). The school was purchased by Walter Walker, Sr. and moved to a location on Cty B (north of the Grand Valley Campground), where it  was later incorporated into a new structure for a private residence.
