History Thru The Lens

Welcome to my blog site!

My interests in history and photography come together in this photoblog. Featured in this blog are historical pictures such as the above photo of the RMS Olympic and her sister ship the RMS Titanic, which would prove to be the last one of them together side by side. Hopefully all who visit will enjoy it and recommend the site to their friends.

Hume-Fogg Academic High School


Hume-Fogg Academic High School, located in Nashville, TN, is the nation's oldest operating high school. Opened in 1855 as Hume High School, it was Nashville's first. The city's second high school, Fogg High School, was built directly adjacent to Hume in 1875. In 1912, the two schools merged and continue to this day to provide quality education to its' students.  The school was listed on the National Registry of Historic Places on October 16, 1974.
