Phyllis, If you www.google.com Lane Seminary, there are several interesting articles about it's establishment and history. I remember hearing about it being demolished when I was a child. Since it was sponsored by the Presbyterian Church, perhaps the Cincinnati Presbytery would be able to give you information: http://www.presbyteryofcincinnati.org/ www.presbyteryofcincinnati.org/ResourceCenter/Documents.htm Marilyn -----------------------original message--------------------------------- In a message dated 6/21/2008 4:53:41 P.M.

No one seems to know anything about these schools. I did find this little bit online: ".Philipp Hauser, and . Julius Weyse (or Weise), who taught from 1836 to 1839 at a school for German emigrant children sponsored by the Presbyterian Lane Seminary." Has anyone else run across information about the German Emigrant (Immigrant) School? Phyllis **************Gas prices getting you down? Search AOL Autos for fuel-efficient used cars.

Thanks Marilyn! I don't see anything prior to 1840 on those links and no mention of the German Emigrant School, so I will call them Monday.
