Oren B. Cheney
Oren Burbank Cheney (December 10, 1816 – December 22, 1903)〔 was a Free Will Baptist clergyman, an abolitionist and the founder of Bates College.
==Early life==
Oren Cheney was born in Holderness, New Hampshire, to Abigail and Moses Cheney, who were prominent abolitionists. His father was a paper manufacturer and also a conductor on the Underground Railroad.〔("Guide to the Office of the President, Oren Burbank Cheney records, 1857-1902" ), Edmund S. Muskie Archives & Special Collections Library, Bates College, accessed 31 May 2012〕
Young Cheney was educated at the Parsonsfield Seminary (a Free Will Baptist prep school). He attended college at Brown University, and Dartmouth College, where he graduated with the Class of 1839. Cheney had transferred from Brown to Dartmouth after seeing mob violence on campus against abolitionists. The college had many economic ties with slave trade shipping. Cheney believed that Dartmouth was more tolerant of abolitionism.
In 1844 Cheney was ordained as a Free Will Baptist minister. He later attended the Free Will Baptist Bible School in Whitestown, New York to study theology but had to leave following his wife's death in 1846.〔 (This school was later called the Cobb Divinity School).
