List of homeschooled individuals

Note: In the West, compulsory education arose between the end of the 17th century and the beginning of the 18th in the German states of Gotha, Calemberg and, particularly, Prussia. The first compulsory education law in the American colonies was established in Massachusetts in 1852. In 1918 Mississippi was the last state to enact a compulsory attendance law. Therefore, people educated before that era are not listed here.
