NOTABLE ALUMNI
the Hartford Grammar School
Of the thousands of students who have graduated from the school since
1851, many have excelled in their professional careers, locally and nationally.
There were no diplomas nor special graduation forms until 1854, and school records did not show accurately who completed the courses of study. The lists for years previous to 1854 probably contain the names of those students who would have been entitled to a diploma. Students who attended the Hartford Grammar School, i.e. prior to 1847, are mentioned by Henry Barnard in his written works.
In the field of education, many returned to teach at HPHS and other city schools. Others became teachers and college professors in Connecticut and in other states and countries.
In the field of law, an impressive number became well-known attorneys and judges of the lower and superior courts in Connecticut and other states.
There have been numerous local and state politicians who graduated from HPHS: state senators and representatives, city and town officials, and members of boards of education.
Another group over the years are graduates who served in every war since the Civil War, matched by many others who have performed peaceful missionary work around the globe.
In medicine and science, many have left their mark. Business and industrial leadership by HPHS graduates is significant in the first half of the Twentieth Century. These businessmen often were active in their communities and were trustees on college boards and other institutions.
Graduates who served in the Civil War are listed in Document VIII of the HPHS History Project. Graduates who excelled in athletics are enrolled in the HPHS Sports Hall of Fame.
Information on graduates from the 1930’s forward is incomplete largely due to the fact that their careers and successes were not listed in the 1955 Catalog, whereas this had been the case in the 1941 Catalog. The occasion of the Tercentenary Celebration in 1938 involved an impressive research effort that produced the 1941 Catalog. Credit must be given to the many people who must have had some familiarity with Hartford notables either personally or due to their local fame. Certainly, great devotees such as Clarence H. Wickham, renowned member of the Class of 1879, and Principals Clement C. Hyde and Thomas J. Quirk were involved in the research.
Some of the graduated classes do not profile their colleagues over the years. Consequently, “Notable Alumni” is a work in progress, and information will be added as the school receives news about its more recent alumni.
