Old School House, Winfield

The Tasmanian Mine brought as many as 1500 residents to the town of Winfield located 4 miles west of Vickburg. By 1890 Winfield's population may have peaked out at near 1500 due to several successful gold strikes.By the silver crash of 1893 the town was virtually deserted.The last shipment of ore was made shortly after World War I.
