Bishop College was established in 1881 by the American Baptist Home Mission Society as a coeducational school for African Americans. It was named for Nathan Bishop (1808-1880), a white attorney and philanthropist who supported the establishment of the school. With Bishop's support, the Society purchased land in Marshall from both white and Black property holders to establish and expand the college campus. By 1910, Bishop College consisted of seven brick buildings, including student housing, classrooms, and administrative spaces. After the school relocated to Dallas in 1961, its Marshall campus was sold and all of the buildings were demolished.
Texas College, which is affiliated with the United Negro College Fund, is a private, historically black Christian Methodist Episcopal college in Tyler, Texas. The college was founded in 1894 by a group of ministers affiliated with the Christian Methodist Episcopal (CME) Church, a predominantly black denomination which was known as the Colored Methodist Episcopal Church in America at the time. The founders planned to provide for education of African American students, who were excluded from the segregated university system of Texas.
This lot is located in Cincinnati.
