SCHERER, JOHN JACOB
SCHERER, JOHN JACOB
(1830–1919). John Jacob Scherer, teacher, was born near Rural Retreat, Wythe
County, Virginia, the son of Jacob and Elizabeth (Spoon) Scherer, on February
7, 1830. After some education in a country school, he attended Virginia
Collegiate Institute and Pennsylvania College, where he graduated in 1852. He
accepted a teaching position in the private school of a Judge Munger in San
Felipe, Texas, but soon was teaching school in Columbus. With his father and
his brother, Gideon Scherer, Jacob organized Colorado College in Columbus under
the auspices of the Lutheran Church in 1857. All three of them taught in the
college. On October 19, 1863, John Jacob Scherer enlisted in the Confederate
Army for a six-month period. He returned to Virginia in 1867 and there was
married to Elizabeth Katherine Killinger. They moved to Texas, where Scherer
served as president of Colorado College until 1873, when he left Texas to go
back to Virginia; there he founded Marion College. He served as its president
until 1910 and remained as president emeritus until his death in 1919.
