    • Name Edward Morris CHARTIER 


      • Edward Chartier had a farm in Paris, Texas which he lost. He established the first commercial college in Paris Texas in about 1887, which for several years was largely attended, and was a successful institution. In 1891 Edward sold the college to W. F. White and Curtis P. Coe and the Rev. A. W. Colver. These men established a literary department under the name of North Texas State University and continued the business department. After selling his school in Paris, Professor Chartier went to Sioux City, Iowa and then to Findlay, Ohio where he had schools. He later returned to Paris and started another commercial school. Edward had perfected a system of shorthand with a guy named Spencer, which was said to be simpler and faster than the old Pittman and other systems. He sold this second school in Paris and went out on the road selling his shorthand system and demonstrating it to the teachers in colleges that purchased it. It is said that Edward ran off to California with Spencer’s secretary when Clara Bell refused her husband’s request to let her move in with the family. When the 1900 census was taken, Edward and Clara and family were living at 911North High St. in Paris (Lamar), Texas. Edward was a schoolteacher. When the 1910 census was taken, Edward and Mable Chartier were lodgers in the home of Charles and Annie Sims at 1522 Franklin St. in Oakland (Alameda), Calif. Edward was a publishing manager. In this census Edward and Mable say they have been married 3 years, and Mable says she is the mother of no children. When the 1920 census was taken, Edward and May Belle were living on South Court St. in Center Township (Lake), Indiana. His occupation is very difficult to read in this census; but it looks like he was some kind of publisher. When the 1930 census was taken, May Belle was living at 2915 Juniper St. in San Diego.
