- According to the 1873 atlas and 1917 atlas for Rock County,
there were seven rural schools in Janesville
- Township. I do not know where Willowdale
was located.
- The location and current status of these school buildings
is given below (using the modern road names).
- The numbers given to each school are mine and not district
numbers. Thanks to Georgia Roe for the names of the schools.
