Coulter and Edmund Turney and first meeting at Springfield Baptist Church. It moved to Atlanta in 1879 and became the Atlanta Baptist Seminary. In 1913, under John Hope, its first African American president, the school was renamed Morehouse College for Henry Lyman Morehouse of the American Baptist Home Mission Society.
