I found this photo in my grandmother's scrapbook. Her mother taught school in Florence. Although her mother isn't in the picture, it does list the names of the other teachers and the year.
My great grandmother, who apparently taught 6, 7 & 8th grades, was Mary Lydia "Mollie" Laubisch.

(Katherine) Barbara Disque Knipper Bauer Bender
was born in Germany on 7 July 1841. She came to the U.S. with
her parents in 1851. Family lore has it that she almost fell
overboard during the passage when her foot got caught in a rope on deck.
She was saved by one of the sailors. Her family ended up settling in
Boone County. She first married (John) Adam Knipper who also came
to this country from Germany and settled in Boone County. She
had 6-7 kids before Adam died before 1883. She remarried Adam
Bauer and later Anthony Bender. After the deaths of Bender and
her daughter, Lizzie, she tended house for her son-in-law, George Batchelor.
Her grandkids called her, "Grandma Bender." She
died in Lawrenceburg, IN on 7 Feb 1925 and is reportedly buried in an
unmarked grave near Lot 106 with her daughter & son-in-law, Lizzie
& George Batchelor.

at Split Rock at the mouth of Wulper Creek and the Ohio River outside
