Redwood School
Redwood School was a three-room schoolhouse for white students in the Union Hall district of Franklin County. The school was built on a concrete foundation, and it was heated with a stove. The building did not have electricity, running water, or indoor restrooms, though it did contain an office. C. E. Waid, Thelma P. Bowman, Rebecca Lumsden, A. D. Ramsey, and Elizabeth Divers were teachers at the school.
