Greetings from Victoria, BC, Canada. Can anyone tell me where records/yearbooks/photographs of the Hill House School might be found? My 88 yr. old father, Theodore "Ted" Horton graduated from this school in 1932. It appears his father Clarence D. Horton and his uncle Herbert W. Horton as well as his sister Charlotte E. Horton all graduated from this school! Does it still exist? If not, what happened to it? I've tried finding a New Haven Historical Society on the Internet but to no avail. The time frame I'm searching is 1896-1932. The Public Library doesn't appear to have an online resource; I've sent a query to the New Haven School District but am hoping a fellow genealogist knows something and can spur this part of our quest a bit faster. Thanking you in advance for any help you can lend! Donice R. Horton
