About Winchester Law School
According to Wikipedia, Winchester Law School was a privately run institution for legal education. Operated by Henry St. George Tucker Sr., it was open from 1824 to 1831. History In 1824 Henry Tucker was named Chancellor of the Equity Court of the Fourth District, with jurisdiction in Clarksburg and Winchester. Since he had left the Virginia State Senate and a lucrative law practice to accept the judicial appointment, he needed to generate additional income. Because he had previously worked as a law professor, Tucker decided to start a law school using a building at what is now 37 South Cameron Street in Winchester.
