From Pioneer History of Camden, Oneida County, NY,pg 441 : "We may well suppose that our forefathers, in many case s bringing young children with them when they sought a hom e in the wilderness, considered education second only to religious worship; and that the establishment of a place where their children could attend school followed closely the formation of a church society. A school-house stood at a very early date, probably as early as 1800, or soon after, up on what is now our beautiful village park, then a barren piece of land, covered with pine stumps. It stood nearly opposite the site of the M.E. parsonage. Unfortunately but fe w facts can be learned concerning it. That the people of t he town were all interested in the establishment of a schoo l, we gather from the old Congregational records, where w e find at one time it was a question whether money which ha d been raised should be expended for the church or school . On the old roll many names were recorded whose descendants are living in Camden, and possibly attending the present academy (including Spencer Johnson)."
