Manuscripts
This manuscript provides information concerning the State Normal School in Los Angeles, which was located at the southwest corner of Charity Street (renamed Grand Street in 1887) and Fifth Street. This manuscript includes three main sections. The first section titled, "Where We Are Located," is derived from a Los Angeles Daily Herald article which was originally published on May 24, 1889. This section describes the precise geographic coordinates of the State Normal School in Los Angeles. The second section is titled, "State Normal School. January 23, 1886," and this portion details the grading of the grounds for this building's lot. The third section is titled, "Normal School at Los Angeles, Cal." This third section briefly describes the origin of the Normal School in Los Angeles. In 1881, the California State Legislature established the school as a branch of the State Normal School of San José. The school opened on August 29, 1882.
