Summary
"Located in the rolling hills of Lancaster County,Pennsylvania, the Wickersham Grammar School faithfully served the surrounding communities from 1870 to 1955....Although the Wickersham School forms the heart of this book, I have included the history of Stackstown and Billmeyer, since the pupils who attended the school came from these areas."
