RIGHT REV. CHARLES TYLER OLMSTED, D.D., LL.D.
Bishop Olmsted was born at Cohoes, Albany County, N. Y., Apr. 28,
1842, where he lived and attended school until Oct., 1852, when his father moved
to Newport, Ky. In Jan., 1853, he began going to Brooks' Classical School
in Cincinnati, across the Ohio River, and continued there three and one-half
years, preparing for college. Owing to his father's circumstances he did not
enter college until 1862, when he entered the Sophomore class at Trinity College,
Hartford, Conn. Took B.A. degree in 1865 and M. A. in 1868. For three
years after graduation he was a Teacher at St. Stephen's College, Annandale,
N. Y., where he was ordained Deacon in Mar., 1867. In Nov., 1868, was called
as an Assistant Minister to Trinity Chapel, New York City, and remained there
until May, 1884, when he came to Utica as Rector of Grace Church. In
Apr., 1899, he returned to Trinity Parish, New York, as Vicar of St. Agnes'
Chapel, West 92d Street. In June, 1902, he was elected Bishop Coadjutor
of the Diocese of Central New York, to assist the late Bishop Huntington, upon
whose death, in 1904, he became Bishop of the Diocese. In 1893 Hobart College
gave him the degree of D.D.; in 1903 Syracuse Univ. conferred D.C.L.;
and in 1908 Hamilton College added LL. D.
(Bishop Olmsted gets the Tyler name from his father's maternal grand-
father. Comfort Tyler, who was a pioneer of Onandaga County, N. Y., in
1790—mentioned in Clark's History of Onondaga.)
