My Granny, Fina Newsome, b. 1890, Robinsville, Red River, Texas, attended a secretary's school in Paris around 1915. I think a lot of girls from the Detroit, Bagwell, Blossom area went there. The school may have had a broader curriculum but all I know is Granny went there to learn to be a secretary. I once saw a photo of the inside of the class room and it seemed to be all women but the school may have catered to men as well (a business college?). In the photo, it seemed as though the school was in a upstairs room, maybe in the second story of a business(?). Does anyone remember or know of such a school? How would I find out about this school? Thanks sooooooo much in advance, Carl
