Chickasaw Female College in Pontotoc, MS was initially founded as Pontotoc Female Academy in 1836. The institution was later affiliated with the Presbyterian Church after 1852 and ultimately closed in 1936.
The Mississippi State University Libraries digital collections include two Chickasaw Female College catalogs from the 1890-1891 and 1902-1903 academic years.
My great-great grandmother attended this institution. I have her framed degree, and back then it was called Pontotoc Female College. Her degree is from 1878.
