Metcalf Bottoms/Wears Cove

The Little Greenbrier Schoolhouse was constructed on land donated
.by William Abbott. Ephraim Ogle donated yellow poplar logs which
were moved to the site by ox teams. The Little Greenbrier School held its
first classes on January 1, 1882. Some students walked barefoot through
the cold (classes were usually held in winter months) from as far as
nine miles away. Church services were held at the school for several years
until a new church was constructed on land donated by the Metcalf family.
