WALT ASHBY HOMESTEAD PATENT: SW Section 19, Township 5 N, Range 49W. Serial No.
0 7507
   Excerpt from WASHINGTON COUNTY COLORADO BOOK 1989--by Arlene Glenn:
   West 28 or Pleasant View School was begun in 1909. They first had school in
the Jim Williams homestead shack, a two-room sod house, located on the
southeast quarter of Section 19. Then Walt Ashby donated the northwest corner
of land in Section 19. The school was built there about 1910. The school burned
down in 1916 and a new one was erected in 1917. Both East 28 and West 28
schools were closed in 1922 when patrons voted to unite and form one school on
the present Lone Star School grounds.
