About a Black Deaf boy named Harvey Prindle Peet originally from Cape Palmas, Liberia, West Africa. That boy was named after the New York School for the Deaf well-known superintendent, Harvey Prindle Peet.

He married Elizabeth Cooper in 1890. Also, he had a Deaf brother named Charles “Little Wia” Hoffman. Harvey attended both New York School for the Deaf at Fanwood and London’s Deaf School in Bath, London, England. #ASLRose #DeafHistory #DeafStudies #DeafEducation #ASL #BSL

Apologize in advance that this is not captioned, and unedited with some glare. I had to share the short story as this got me more interested to know more about him.
