History on
a Pinhead
Saline
Community as it is also known never been plagued by overpopulation.
There were reportedly a few people living in the area in the 1860s
but Indian misbehavior postponed development until the 1870s and 1880s.
Population figures were unavailable but the Saline school had eighty-four
students taught by two teachers just after 1900. County maps only
showed the school and a church in the 1930s but the school consolidated
with the London school after WWII.
