College Girls in 1904

Wesleyan College, at
Macon, Georgia
was the first college
ever that was chartered
to award degrees to
women.
It was a Methodist
school chartered
in 1836 as the Georgia
Female College.

The present name of Wesleyan College was adopted in 1919.

As a lifelong Methodist, I knew much of the history of Wesleyan College.
But only recently (2008)
was given the photo of the college graduates
in 1904, which includes
one of our Chambers family
cousins, Blanch Burch Harp.
