Creator
Taylor, Frank H. (Frank Hamilton), 1846-1927
Title
An Old Philadelphia School
Date
ca. 1922
Description
Reproduction of a drawing of a schoolhouse. A signpost with an illegible sign stands out fround, and two men are standing on the sidewalk near the entrance.
Notes
The German Lutheran School and Parish House, built prior to 1764, was an annex of the Zion Church and stood upon the north side of Cherry street, east from Fourth street. Dr. Julius Sachse, who was a pupil, states that the German Society met here before the completion of its Seventh street building after the close of the Revolution. He also states that the bells intended for the Zion Church were placed in the school belfry. The old building has been long used for business purposes.
