Mulberry School was located in Ninevah Township (Sec 11, Twp 64, Rg 16) of Adair County about 4½ miles northeast of Novinger. We don’t have a founding date for Mulberry, but do know that it was in operation by 1866 when there were at least three sub-districts in this township and range. According to county histories, the school likely maintained a steady enrollment in the low seventies for most of its existence with 72 students in 1887 (Goodspeed, 1888) and 74 in 1911 (Violette, 1911). The rosters in this collection, a gift of James M Miley of Kirksville, indicate an enrollment range of 70 in 1907-08 to 90 over the 1909-10 school year. Attendance at any one time was never as high as total enrollment for the year, of course.
