Wilson's first schoolhouse was built in 1820. The first teacher was Almira Welch. This is now the site of a nice restaurant and Bed & Breakfast. There is a cache nearby...GC10PMA. It was a sunny but cold day when we were here. There was a lot of snow around, and since I was unable to find the cache.....I decided to go for "The Sign".
