| Manuscript Collection | Requires cookie* | | 4 | Title: | History of Baldwin University and German Wallace College Typescript
| | | | Creator: | Baldwin University | | | | Dates: | 1945 | | | | Abstract: | The History of Baldwin University and German Wallace College was written in 1945 by Clyde E. Feuchter, Hilbert T. Ficken, Adam J. Loeppert, Frances F. Mills, Bertha L. Stiefel, and Myron F. Wicke. It chronicles the development of Baldwin-Wallace College, affliated with the United Methodist Church. Baldwin University came into existence in 1855 from a series of preceding institutions that included the Berea Seminary and the Baldwin Institute. All three were created with the aid of John Baldwin. In 1863, German Wallace College was established by Baldwin University trustee James Wallace around a nucleus of the Baldwin University Department of German. The two merged in 1913 to create Baldwin-Wallace College. The collection consists of a typescript of seven chapters covering the years 1790-1913 and including narrative on the early settlement of Berea,Ohio, the establishment of both institutions, and early student life. | | | | Call #: | MS 4270 | | | | Extent: | 0.10 linear feet (1 container) | | | | Subjects: | Baldwin, John, 1799-1884. | Baldwin-Wallace College. | Baldwin-Wallace College -- History. | Baldwin University (Berea, Ohio) | Baldwin Institute (Berea, Ohio) | Berea Seminary (Berea, Ohio) | German Wallace College. | Universities and colleges -- Ohio -- Berea. | Berea (Ohio) -- History.

| Manuscript Collection | Requires cookie* | | 5 | Title: | Herbert L. Heller Collection, Papers Relating to John Baldwin
| | | | Creator: | Heller, Herbert L. | | | | Dates: | 1837-1972 | | | | Abstract: | John Baldwin (1799-1884) , a native of Connecticut, settled in the Berea, Ohio, area in 1828. After several years of farming he joined with other Methodists to establish an experimental utopian commune called Lyceum Village. The post office for this "United Community of United Christians" was named Berea. The Berea Seminary was incorporated in 1837 as a "working school" based on the lyceum system developed by Josiah Holbrook. The community failed in 1844. Upon his invention of a lathe for turning sandstone grindstones, Baldwin founded the Baldwin Quarry Co. in 1842. This established the Berea sandstone industry which lasted over a century. Baldwin donated land to the Methodist Episcopal Church for the Baldwin Institute in 1845, which became Baldwin University in 1855, and eventually Baldwin-Wallace College in 1913. Baldwin established a sawmill in Palmyra (later Baldwin City), Kansas in 1857 and an educational institute there which later became Baker University. The collection consists of photostatic copies of records of land sales in Kansas, documents relating to Lyceum Village, Berea Seminary, Baldwin Institute and Baker University, and copies of Methodist Church minutes, but primarily xeroxed copies of articles in histories and reference texts pertaining to John Baldwin, Lyceum Village, Berea Seminary, and Baldwin's activities in Kansas, particularly the establishment of Baker University. The collection is useful for those interested in John Baldwin, the lyceum movement of the 19th century, and the establishment of higher education in the Middle West. The collection was compiled by Herbert L. Heller, Professor of Education at Baldwin-Wallace College in 1972. | | | | Call #: | MS 4271 | | | | Extent: | 0.10 linear feet (1 container) | | | | Subjects: | Baldwin, John, 1799-1884. | Baldwin family. | Baldwin Institute (Berea, Ohio) | Berea Seminary (Berea, Ohio) | Baker University. | Methodist Church -- Ohio -- Berea. | Lyceums. | Education -- Ohio -- Berea. | Education, Higher -- Kansas -- Baldwin City. | Real property -- Kansas -- Lawrence. | Real property -- Kansas -- Douglas County. | Berea (Ohio) -- History -- Sources. | Baldwin City (Kan.) -- History -- Sources. | Lyceum Village (Berea, Ohio) -- History -- Sources.
