Seminary Education: Education moved west with the church, and by Oct. 31, 1848, an institution called Ohio Literary and Theological Institution was founded in Columbus, Ohio. In 1850, a school was founded at Tarlton, Ohio, and in November of the same year this institution was moved to Tiffin, Ohio, to become Heidelberg College. Another seminary education was founded at Dayton, Ohio, known as Central Theological seminary education, which was merged with Eden Theological seminary education in 1934, with the merger of the Reformed Church in the United States and the Evangelical Synod of North America. The church and its educational program moved still farther west, into Wisconsin. Its missionaries founded Mission House College and seminary education near Sheboygan, Wis., in 1862.
