Sorry, my hands were full and I couldn’t type much. A chashuve r.y. sent some Baltimore boys to the midwest about 50 odd years ago or so to build up there. So there was some vibrancy in Balto. well before SEED came around. NI’s been there since the mid 30s; Rav Schwab zt”l came to town then too. There were already a number of talmidei chachamim in town before, such as Rabbi Yehuda Davis and Rabbi Feldman, for starters, and a number of very committed shomrei Shabbos.
