Cecilia Morse
Charcila Cecilia Moore (June 3, 1838 – June 13, 1926) was a pioneer of Catholic education in Florida and a citrus farmer.〔(Cecilia Morse historical marker )〕 She was born in Texas and married to attorney Charles Nathan Morse for 16 years until his death. She was the foundress of St. Anthony Catholic School, the oldest parochial school in what is now the Diocese of St. Petersburg, and one of the oldest Catholic schools in Florida.〔(St. Anthony school founder honored at Tampa cemetery ) TBO.com (Tampa Tribune) April 9, 2010〕〔(news release about tribute )〕
==St. Anthony of Padua Catholic School==
After her husband's death, Morse moved to the Catholic colony of San Antonio, Florida in 1883 to try her hand at farming. Upon arrival the young widow was dismayed to find that there was no school for her six surviving children to attend. Colony founder Judge Edmund Dunne tried to appease her by telling her that once more settlers arrived, a school would be built. Mrs. Morse famously retorted ''"The minds of the children now here won't wait for more settlers."'' Morse first began teaching out of her home to fourteen students, including her own six children. With the support of visiting priest Fr. E.J. Dunne (who himself would later become a bishop) classes were moved into the town church on April 29, 1884. By November of that same year the first St. Anthony of Padua School building, a ''12' x 24 frame structure, opened with funds donated by Bishop John Moore.〔Horgan, James J. (1990).

ISBN 978-0-945759-01-0〕 Morse continued teaching at St. Anthony until the Benedictine Sisters arrived in 1889 to take over the growing school.〔Dunne, Sr. Margaret O.S.B. (1984). ''Saint Anthony School Memories of the First Hundred Years''. Saint Leo, FL. Holy Name Priory. p 3〕 Among those first fourteen pupils was a nephew of the town's founder, who went on to become the first American Trappist abbot, Dom Frederic Dunne. Dom Frederic is more highly regarded as the person responsible for encouraging Thomas Merton to write what would eventually become The Seven Storey Mountain among numerous other titles, while both were at The Abbey of Our Lady of Gethsemani in Kentucky.〔〔Raymond, M (2011).
