Dennis School, City of Decatur. "Decatur, City of--schools--Dennis--Building site. When the newest section of Dennis School goes on public display at the Parent-Teacher Association open house tomorrow evening, many old time resident's of the area will be reminded that this house one stood where the Dennis building now stands and that the area was on the very edge of town, practically in the woods. Land on which the school was built was donated by Andrew Dennis. This photo was taken about 1909 and the address of the house was 1509 W. Main. Photo ran 2-17-55. The 1909 city directory lists Edward and Nora Welch at the address of this house."
