Cullin Family Schoolhouse

Does anyone know anything about the old Cullin Schoolhouse in Daviess County (or Hancock Cty) near Iron Ore Hill Cemetery? John Samuel Cullin and wife Annie Sarah Pence-Cullin donated a stretch of land on their farm to the County so they could build a schoolhouse. The County named it the 'Cullin Schoolhouse' after it's benefactors. After many years of vacancy, farmers stored about 1,000 bails of hay in the old school. Around 1972 a fire broke out and the schoolhouse burned to the ground. The property where it stood is at mile markers 5 & 6 on State Route 657 in Daviess County. (might even be Hancock County).
If anyone has any info or even a picture of this old schoolhouse, please let me know. Thank you.
