The evidence

  • “In 1841, the Protestant Episcopal church established a mission in the wilds of Waukesha county, and, at an early day, steps were taken to establish in connection therewith an institution of learning. This was' incorporated in 1847, by the name of Nashotah House. In 1852 the classical school was located at Racine, and Nkshotah House became distinctively a theological seminary.”
