Re-visited the Bolling Properties for a closer look again. Subtitles are included. First formal deaf education with private tutoring was on the Bolling Hall property. First Deaf residential school in America was on the Cobbs property called the Braidwood Academy for the Deaf. The deaf students signed British Sign Language (BSL) and had deaf teacher, Thomas Bolling along with John Braidwood.
