Eleanor (Soukup) Andersh has been a lifelong Wagner resident. When she began school, she first attended the Big Tobacco country school which was located three miles from the Soukup family’s rural residence. She attended the Big Tobacco school for first and second grade and then again in eighth grade. When the weather was nice, she would have to walk home from school. For her third-grade year of school, Eleanor was sent to the Tabor Catholic School at the Saint Wenceslaus Catholic Church which at the time was also a boarding school with a dormitory. Her parents decided to send Eleanor and later her sister Mary to the catholic boarding school after her older brothers had graduated from the eighth grade from the Big Tobacco country school.
