The logical place for it to be is Cecil or Kent Counties, MD, but I have looked and it is not there. Reuben was from Baltimore City so I thought maybe they were married there. She was born in 1868 and their first child was born (in Kent County, MD) in November of 1885 so I am guessing at a marriage year of 1884 +/-. Any help appreciated.
We are trying to locate where little gunpowder is located! Are there any maps such as plat maps of early Baltimore county or town from the 1870 era available. Given as a precinct in the 1870 census. TIA rfs rfstrait@juno.com

Here is more history from http://www.mdarchives.state.md.us/msa/mdmanual/16dhmh/html/16agenph.html As Kathi Jones-Hudson wrote, you will not be able to get any records. Especially with current privacy laws, you are not likely to get records today from any health facility. John ROSEWOOD CENTER Rosewood Lane, Owings Mills, MD 21117 Rosewood Center was established in 1888 as the Asylum and Training School for the Feeble Minded of the State of Maryland (Chapter 183, Acts of 1888). The Asylum and Training School first admitted children in 1889. From 1912 to 1961, it was known as Rosewood State Training School. In 1961, the School became Rosewood State Hospital (Chapter 89, Acts of 1961). When the State Department of Health merged with the Department of Mental Hygiene in 1969, the Hospital was renamed Rosewood Center. The Center provides for the care, education, training, and habilitation of persons with mental retardation from Anne Arundel, Baltimore, Harford and Howard counties and Baltimore City. Specialized services to manage behavior also are available. Rosewood is funded to serve a daily average of 290 residents (Code Health - General Article, sec. 7-305). -----Original Message----- From: g bolt [mailto:Gbolt549@msn.com] Sent: Wednesday, August 23, 2006 7:41 PM To: MD-BaltimoreCity-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [MD-BaltimoreCity] Rosewood Training School Does anyone know where I can get the records for Rosewood Training School? ============================== Search Family and Local Histories for stories about your family and the areas they lived.

Does anyone know where I can get the records for Rosewood Training School?
I doubt seriously if you can get any records for Rosewood, all mental health records are sealed permanently in MD -- even patients cannot get their own records. "Training School" is a misonmer - Rosewood is/was (it may now be closed I'm not sure) a custodial facility for the mentally retarded. An extremely unpleasant place, when I lived in that part of BA Co. I hear so many really awful things about it.

Barbara, Madame LeFevre's Edgeworth School may have been founded by Sarah Agnes Kummer. Here's something I found on the MD Historical Society site: Sarah Agnes Kummer (fl. 1830-1872) was a teacher and school headmistress in Baltimore. A native of Bethlehem, Pa., Miss Kummer came to Baltimore as an orphan at the age of 14, and began teaching children at the school of Rev. Henry Sargent. Soon after, she was a private tutor to the children of Augustus Albert, and accompanied the family to Europe, where she remained for eleven years. Returning to Baltimore in the middle 1860s, she established a school for young women which was located, at various times, at 139 St. Paul St. and at 64 Mt. Vernon Place. At one point, she moved her institution to Paris, where she provided instruction in French for American women. Health problems compelled her return to the Baltimore, where she died of cancer in 1872. The reason I think Kummer may have founded the school is from this collection I found on archivegrid.org: Papers, 1846-1872. Kummer, Sarah Agnes, 1830-1872. Family correspondence, journal (1862-1863) describing trip to Paris, France, and other papers. Topics include teaching and the Edgeworth School for Young Ladies which Kummer opened in Baltimore. A famous philanthropist -- Martha McChesney Berry, founder of the Berry Schools who dedicated her life to providing an education to the youth of Southern Appalachia -- attended in 1882 (at age 16) "Madam LeFevre's Edgeworth School in Baltimore, MD."

Hello! I am new to this messageboard, and I hope someone can help me. I am curious, and would like to learn more, about a school that I believe was located in Baltimore during the time of (at least) 1878-1890. It was called the Edgeworth School, or Mrs. LeFevre's School. I believe this was a private school for young girls. My great Aunt and great grandmother attended the school. Where was this school located? Does it still exist under another name? Where would the school records be located? Any information about this school, or suggestions about where to find information on this school would be very appreciated. I have searched over the Internet and haven't found any information about the school. Thank you! -Barbara

Surnames: PISTEL - GLUCK - KOEHLER or KOHLER Classification: Lookup Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/AFB.2ACI/4738 Message Board Post: I'm looking for the grave location for Margaret or Margaretha Pistel who died probably sometime after 1880. It could be into the very early 1900s, I'm not sure. She was my great great great grandmother and she was from Northern Bavaria, Germany. She was visiting her daughter, Johanna Barbara Pistel Gluck, in the Baltimore, MD, area when she died there. We've heard Margaretha or Margaret was buried in the Baltimore area. We don't know where. Margaretha's maiden name was Koehler or Kohler, but I doubt that would be on the headstone. I'd be grateful for any suggestions on where to look for her grave site. Dale Boyd Evans, GA
