| Background & Acknowledgements for Norseville Area Materials: [Back to Norseville School & Community Main Page] It is difficult to think of anything more Norwegian in name......NORSEVILLE! Most of these pictures and supporting information for this review of Norseville School have been provided by Ron A. Rosenberg. Ron is a descendant of family who attended this school. Additional pictures have been added to compliment Ron's pictures. Gary Hanson of rural Strum is one of those contributors. He and his wife, Corinne, live on the farm where Gary grew up and attended Norseville School, just down the road. Susan Thompson Stump and Gretchen Thompson Carter, Rachel Rosenberg Harding and Norma (Rindal) Pire, all with family ties to the area, are contributors. Thank you! The Internet link to Eau Claire County Genealogical and Historical Resources (part of the WiGenWeb Project), Schools subdivision is provided here so that you can check out history and pictures for other surrounding schools. From that location you can easily move through other options for Eau Claire County history. Nance Sampson is the author of that site as well as for the Trempealeau County historical WiGenWeb Project site. Ron Rosenberg's pictures are also available at that Eau Claire County site under Norseville Schools. If you go there you will see that he has also provided pictures for other southern Eau Claire County schools. Allen School is the one I am aware of at this writing. Norseville School was located in Eau Claire County, Clear Creek Township. Residents of this southern portion of Eau Claire County were and continue to be very much a part of the Strum community. Maybe two or three miles north of Strum,Trempealeau and Eau Claire County lines meet. I recall that a number of the kids in my school classes lived north of this line. Records show that many immigrants who came to Strum and the Town of Unity had their destination as Eau Claire County, not Trempealeau County. posted by Fred Matson December 12, 2003.
