Genealogy request

For info on a Julia McAllister of Clarendon, thought to have attended Brockport c1910. No McAllisters listed in the alumni directories that cover 1868-1927. Then I saw a mention in the Brockport Republic of a Julia Culhane marrying a Wm McAllister of Holley in 1905, and thought that might be her, but no Culhane either. The family member said she started teaching young, at 17 or 18, and in that era, it is possible she went to the high school department of the Normal, and that I believe would have enabled her to teach in one room elementary schools, which is what she did according to a follow up call I made. I'll check next in the high school records, the alumni listing has some high school, but not all by any means.
