Grace A. Mapps

http://dbpedia.org/resource/Grace_A._Mapps an entity of type: Thing

Grace A. Mapps (c. 1835 – June 11, 1897) was an American educator, administrator and poet, who was possibly the first black woman in America to graduate with a four-year college degree. Mapps graduated from New-York Central College at McGrawville in 1852, but the type of degree she received (if any) is not recorded. As such, Mary Jane Patterson is widely regarded as the first African American woman to graduate with a four-year bachelor's degree. Understandings of Mapps' achievements are also complicated by regular confusion with relatives Sarah Mapps Douglass and Grace Douglass, both of whom were prominent activists and educators. rdf:langString
