Here is an old RPPC (Real Photo Post Card) of a group of students and the teacher of Troutman School. The postcard has a name Miss Ethel Giles of Butler, Pa. written in the address area, but I can't see that it was ever stamped, cancelled or mailed. On the back is also written Troutman School April 6, 1914. I did some research and found that Troutman School was located in Penn Township in Butler County, Pennsylvania. According to some newspaper articles the teacher in 1914 was L. C. Barnhart. I also researched Ethel Giles and found her in the 1910 census in Penn Twp., Butler County along with her parents: Thomas and Mary B. Giles, Ethel was 8 in 1910 and had a sister Helen who was 5. Ethel (1902 - 1978) married Clarence Patterson (1896 - 1956). They had two children, a boy and a girl.The postcard has rough edges and corners. There are some marks on it, the back looks like the card had been glued into an old time photo album, it has the remains of the black paper album page stuck to it. Despite the issues it is still a pretty neat old post card. Great for the local historian. Butler and Penn Township in PA are located in Butler County, 35 miles from Pittsburgh, near the towns of Oak Hills, Northvue and Connoquenessing. Postage will be 4.20 to the U. S.IF OUTSIDE THE U.
