Record Group 1 Early Records, 1869 to 1911 This record group includes partial records of St. Vincent's College from 1864 to 1911, Marymount School and College from 1923 to 1973 and St. Joseph College of Orange, 1959-1972. Originally founded by the Congregation of the Ministers (Vincentian Fathers) at the Lugo House in the historic pueblo Plaza, only partial records remain of St. Vincent's College. However the bulk of college catalogs and issue runs of the student literary magazine The Student provide a resource for studies of higher education during the Gilded Age in Los Angeles. The bulk of Marymount records principally begin with construction of the Westwood campus in 1932. The St. Joseph s records are primarily a collection of printed matter created after affiliation with Marymount College. RECORD SERIES A: ST.
