Land for the establishment of Lieb Cemetery was donated by Will Blakey and W.O. Jarvis in the spring of 1902. A meeting was held for the purpose of building a schoolhouse. Plans were made and lumber was hauled by wagon from Channing. Completion of the school was in April 1903. A two month school term was held that spring.
Classes were held at Lieb until 1929, when the district was consolidated with two new districts, Pringle and Morse.
NOTE: The school building mentioned on the marker is now a community building for meetings of farmers in the area and sets adjacent to the cemetery.The information appearing here, regarding the school is incorrect. I was at this cemetery some 40 years ago, and the school, which was attended by Grandmother was falling down then. It did sit near the cemetery, but, has been gone for years.
