How can I learn more about the history of Daleville Academy and Daleville College?
Answer
A great overview of Daleville Academy and Daleville College appears in the Bridgewater College history book, Bridgewater College, The First Hundred Years: 1880 - 1980 by Francis F. Wayland. It is digitized here: https://digitalcommons.bridgewater.edu/first_hundred_years/
There is information about Daleville College throughout the book. A good place to start is in the chapter on the Presidency of Paul Haynes Bowman, 1919-1946. It can be separately downloaded.
The books, Fifty years of educational endeavor; Bridgewater college 1880-1930, Daleville college 1890-1930 and Brethren education in the Southeast: an account of the educational endeavors among the Brethren people in the southeastern region, 1857-1955 are available in Special Collections.
Bridgewater College Special Collections also holds some archives of the Daleville Academy and Daleville College. Catalog records for some of them are found here: https://bridgewater.pastperfectonline.com/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&search_criteria=Daleville&searchButton=Search
