Madison Female Academy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Madison Female Academy was a school for girls which flourished in the 19th century in Madison, Wisconsin and is now mainly famous as the site of the first classes held by the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
In the late 19th century its grounds were acquired to become a railway depot, and after some years operating from less satisfactory premises it closed.
