P a g e 4 G h o s t T o w n s a n d H i s t o r y From The Ismay Newspaper– June 1909: It's been awhile since any children have experienced "back to school" days at the Maudlow School. Built in 1909, the Maudlow School is the only known example of the two story rectangular frame type of school house built in Gallatin County. A large student enrollment, brought about by the consolidation of a number of schools in the area, necessitated a larger than normal building. Elementary classes would be held on the first level while the high school met above. The railroad through Maudlow was abandoned in 1980.
