Turning right on Grange Hall Road, it’s interesting to note that this was not the original location of the road; the 1874 map shows it was one block east which is now known as LaGrange Road (see image below), while the 1855 map (above) has it angling west toward Aley Church, south of the woods.
The white frame home on the southeast corner dates prior to 1880 and faces west, toward the 1855 road location. On the west side of Grange Hall at the intersecion of LaGrange Road is the location of the initial Aley School #3.
On the 1855 map above, the initials B.S.S stands for blacksmith shop and S.H. stands for schoolhouse.
