Text: The Ivy Community was named for Sam, Jack and Bob Ivy, brothers who moved to Kimble County in 1883. S.H. Ivy deeded two acres of land in 1898 for a school site and a structure was built nearby. In 1917 Ivy donated another tract of land, and a schoolhouse was built that year. The building also served as a community chapel and preachers held services once or twice a month. The building was the site of social gatherings, such as box suppers, and was used as a voting place. although Ivy School was consolidated with nearby London School in 1939, the chapel continues to serve the area.
