Anybody know anything about these early academies -- where they were located, (there is a specific land lot mentioned) Both Land District 22 and 17 seem to be on the East side of Harris County -- but there probably was a church or community near them? Is Mount Airy a correct name? how long they were in business -- or anything about the trustees named. (If there are errors in the spelling of the surnames, please do let us know) from:Galileo ACTS OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE State of Georgia, PASSED IN MILLEDGEVILLE AT AN ANNUAL SESSION IN NOVEMBER AND DECEMBER, 1832.
