Marker Text SLOVER SCHOOL-ROBINSON CABIN Samuel m. Slover and his family came to Parker County from Arkansas in the mid-1850s. The Slover community was established soon after and this one-room log cabin was constructed in northeast Parker County on the Robinson family land. It served the community as a school, home and later as storage for hay before being returned to its original state in 1983. This log cabin is an example of fine early workmanship. The education of our ancestors, beginning at the Slover School, formed the backbone of this community and the Parker County area. This log cabin stands as a reminder of architectural history and the early education system in this community. (2014)
