Sherwood School Photo of 1923-34

We have spent some time on our local schools in this blog, as well as through displays at Scipio Town Hall. Several of our "Scipioites" have contributed photos of our one-room schools, and names of teachers and classmates. Other local municipal historians have also, as school days were something we all have in common. I will be taking down my school display soon and replacing it with a display of some photos of our early citizens.
The December 10, 2008 edition of the Genoa-King Ferry Tribune had a photo of Sherwood Select School 1923 - 1924. All the students are lined up alongside of the school, 37 folks in all.
We have tried to identify folks in this photo for several months, having a copy of the photo on display and had some luck, and another historian had quite a bit of luck so the article in the Tribune included the names of close to half of the students.

Here is a link to that same photo:

I am looking for a store and gas station that was owned by Henry Dow Scott and his wife Emma Scott in and around the 1935-1936 era Maybe before that date. They are my great great Aunt and Uncle. I was just there last week and visited with Ty at the Monument Company and with Agnus Powers next door to him. If you have any connections to records or photos of such a store please share with me at helendonham@gmail.com. I appreciate you.
Thank you, Helen Donham
