Parsons College

Parsons College was started in Veal's Station as the Texas Masonic Institute on Jan. 2, 1860.  William G. Veal, associates and successors, first ran the school.  The Methodist Church lator ran the school, then B. W. Akard.  Then it became the Presbyterian school named Parsons College.
