Schools

The first school was built just across the road south of the church.

Walter Roberts and others taught school here back in the 1890’s. Later

on, the school was moved farther south to what was known as Myrtle

Springs. A good building was put up here, and a large school was kept up

until the building was destroyed by fire. A new building was put up

farther north, toward the store.

John McPeek put in a store and got a post office established at Enon,

about 1890. The post office was named McPeek for John McPeek, the first

post master.

Enon at present is a thickly populated community and enjoying all modern

rural conveniences.
