^[31] A school was opened in Le Roy at about 1855. The first schoolhouse erected in the county was in what is now district No. 4, in Le Roy township. This was built of logs, donated, and put up by the citizens on the southeast corner of the southwest quarter of the northwest quarter of section 29, township 101, range 14. … The teachers were Melissa Allen, daughter of David Allen, N. B. Todd, A. J. Porter, Isaac Smith, Celina Burnap, Eliza Pierce and Emma Knapp. page 124

In 1856, F. Bevier, Lewis Mathews, Horace Barber, Isaac Smith, J. M. Wyckoff, A. J. Porter, Elder Tabor, N. P. Todd, Elihue Morse, George Clapper, Samuel Hale, W. A. Gilson, Chas. Bell, Albert Estlie and many others came in for settlement. … Smith was a native of Maine. He pre-empted the south half of section 19. He was a man finely educated and a teacher. In 1870 he moved to Dodge county, Minnesota, and still later to Mapleton, Blue Earth county. He represented that county in the legislature at one time. He was ordained a Free Will Baptist minister while there. He died in the fall of 1882. page 392

In November of 1858 G. W. Bishop resigned as chairman of the board of township meeting, and Isaac Smith was appointed to fill the vacancy. page 394

A cemetery association was formed in LeRoy as early as 1857, when, on December 26, a number of citizens assembled at the home of Daniel Caswell. These men were: N. P. Todd, A. J. Palmer, O. D. Walker, William Raymond, Daniel Caswell, Lewis Matthews, William A. Gilson, Isaac Smith, John M. Wyckoff, A. D. Park, W. B. Spencer, James H. Story, J. C. Jones and A. Fisk. The corporate name of the association was Union Grove Cemetery of LeRoy. The trustees were: G. W. Bishop, Isaac Smith, N. P. Todd, Lewis Matthews, W. B. Spencer and J. C. Jones. The grounds selected by the above association were situated on the southeast of the southeast of section 28, and a few bodies were there buried. These grounds proved to be unfit for cemetery purposes, as the lime rock came so near the surface that graves could not be dug the proper depth. page 403
