Lawrence Randolph Bromery, 1900 - 1974
As a young black in Cumberland, L. Randolph Bromery ended his formal educational pursuits at high school age. This was at a time when black students were obliged to obtain their high school education by entering the back door of a school on Greene Street, (most likely the Allegany County High School which was built in 1908 and burned down in 1932) at night and to pay for those classes as well! This experience taught Randolph a lesson no school could provide.
