Description
An account of the resource
<p dir="ltr"><span>Caroline Wells Dall was born in Boston, Massachusetts on June 22, 1822. Her parents, Mark Healey and Caroline Foster, provided her with an exclusive education, consisting of private tutoring and private schooling, until she was 15 years old. From 1837 to 1842, she administered a nursery in the North End of Boston. In 1842, Caroline began teaching at Georgetown Female Seminary, where she met Unitarian minister Charles Dall, whom she would marry in 1844. </span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span>Once married, Caroline was increasingly involved in women’s suffrage causes. A gifted and prolific writer, reformer, and activist, she became a staunch advocate for women’s rights. Caroline and Charles lived in Toronto in the early 1850s. By 1855, Charles Dall had traveled alone to India to work as a Unitarian missionary, returning only once to America before his death in 1886.</span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span>For many years, Caroline was actively involved in the Boston women’s rights movement. One of her many important books, <em>The College, the Market, and the Court</em> (1867), based on a series of lectures she gave in Boston in 1861-1862, is a collection of essays about women’s rights, education, economic advancement, and protection under the law. </span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span>Her other publications include <em>Historical Pictures Retouched: a Volume of Miscellanies</em> (1859), in which she discusses lesser-known important women from history, <em>Essays and Sketches </em>(1849), and <a href="https://archive.org/details/womansrightsunde00dall/page/n5/mode/1up" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Women's Rights Under the Law: In Three Lectures, Delivered in Boston, January, 1861</em></a> (1862).</span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span>In 1865, Dall helped found the American Social Science Association. Along with suffragist Paulina Davis, Caroline Dall founded both the New England Women’s Rights Convention and <em>Una</em>, a journal devoted to advocating for women’s rights. Because of these activities, she is often associated with fellow activist, Transcendentalist, and journalist Margaret Fuller regarding their advocacy for the advancement of women.</span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span>Later in life, Caroline distanced herself from the women’s rights movement and published such eclectic and diverse works as Egypt (<em>Egypt's Place in History</em> 1868), the Civil War (<em>Patty Gray's Journey</em>, three volumes for children, 1869–70), and <em>What We Really Know About Shakespeare</em> (1885), <em>The Life of Dr. Anandabai Joshee</em> (1888), <a href="https://archive.org/details/margaretherfrien00dall" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Margaret and Her Friends: Ten Conversations with Margaret Fuller</em></a> (1895), and <em>Transcendentalism in New England</em> (1897). In her 70s, she continued lecturing and giving sermons at the Unitarian Church.<br /><br />After several years of suffering from arthritis, Caroline died of pneumonia on December 17, 1912, at the age of 90.</span></p>

Description
An account of the resource
Susan Archer Talley Weiss was born in Hanover County, VA on February 14. A Woman of the Century lists her birth year as 1835, but other sources list it as 1822. Her family moved to Richmond when Susan was eight, and she lost her ability to hear two years later, due to Scarlet Fever. <br /><br />With the support of her father and her cousin, sculptor Alexander Galt, Susan cultivated her artistic and writing talents. She published in <a href="http://www.marykatemcmaster.org/WOC/items/show/113" target="_blank"><em>The Southern Literary Messenger</em></a> when she was eleven and began her writing career. During her career, she contributed many <a href="https://quod.lib.umich.edu/m/moajrnl?c=moajrnl&cc=moajrnl&key=author&page=browse&value=Talley&Submit=Submit" target="_blank">pieces</a> to this prominent Richmond periodical. Susan's work was also available in book form, as Rudd & Carleton published her <a href="https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=loc.ark:/13960/t5gb2z460;view=1up;seq=7" target="_blank">Poems</a> in 1859. On October 26, <em>The Richmond Dispatch</em> included an <a href="https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn84024738/1859-10-26/ed-1/seq-2/#date1=1789&sort=date&rows=20&searchType=advanced&language=&sequence=0&index=18&words=Archer+Susan+Talley&proxdistance=5&date2=1963&ortext=&proxtext=&phrasetext=Susan+Archer+Talley&andtext=&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=1" target="_blank">advertisement</a> noting that Susan's book was being sold for seventy-five cents at Randolph's Bookstore and Bindery on Main Street in Richmond. <em>The Nationa Era</em> <a href="https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn84026752/1859-11-10/ed-1/seq-2/#date1=1789&sort=date&rows=20&searchType=advanced&language=&sequence=0&index=19&words=Archer+Susan+Talley&proxdistance=5&date2=1963&ortext=&proxtext=&phrasetext=Susan+Archer+Talley&andtext=&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=1" target="_blank">reviewed</a> her book on November 10, 1859.<br /><br />Susan's personal network in Richmond included Benjamin B. Minor, editor of <em>The Southern Literary Messenger</em>, Edgar Allan Poe, Rosalie Poe, and sculptor Edward Virginius Valentine. <br /><br />Her lengthy poem <a href="https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=dul1.ark:/13960/t8z902596;view=1up;seq=2" target="_blank">"The Battle of Manassas"</a> was published as a broadside in Richmond on August 3, 1861. When living in Norfolk during the Civil War, Susan apparently served as a <a href="https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/31929632" target="_blank">spy</a>, was caught, and spent time in confinement.<br /><br />She married Colonel Louis Weiss of the Union Army, started a family and moved to New York City. However, Susan's personal life was not a happy one and the couple divorced. Focusing on her writing to support herself and her son, Susan penned pieces for newspapers and magazines such as <a href="http://www.marykatemcmaster.org/WOC/items/show/32" target="_blank"><em>Scribner's Monthly</em></a> ("<a href="https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=inu.30000011751272;view=1up;seq=992" target="_blank">Peter Bloch.

Description
An account of the resource
<span>Mary J. Scarlett Dixon was born in Robeson, Berks County, Pennsylvania, on October 23, 1822. She grew up in a Quaker family that became very involved in the Anti-Slavery cause. Having lost both parents by the age of sixteen, Mary was very interested in medicine. After pursuing a teaching career, she entered the Female Medical College of Pennsylvania in 1855. When Mary graduated in 1857, she continued to take classes, worked with poor patients, and delivered lectures on medical topics.</span><br /><br /><span>Beginning in 1859, Mary taught at her alma mater and held the title of Professor of Anatomy. Eventually, she established a successful practice in Philadelphia and changed her position to Professor of Anatomy and Histology. Mary's colleagues included Rachel Bodley, Emeline H. Cleveland, and Ann Preston. </span><span>On March 16, 1867, Mary gave the valedictory address at the graduation ceremony. Her address, which was printed in </span><em><a href="https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83025925/1867-03-16/ed-1/seq-5/#date1=1840&sort=date&date2=1910&searchType=advanced&language=&sequence=0&index=2&words=J+Mary+Scarlett&proxdistance=5&rows=20&ortext=&proxtext=&phrasetext=Mary+J.+Scarlett&andtext=&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Evening Telegraph</a></em><span> that evening, included wise advice for both future physicians and all women. </span><br /><br /><span>After she married G. Washington Dixon on May 8, 1873, when she was fifty years old, Mary continued to teach and practice medicine. </span><span>In addition to her medical practice and personal life, Mary advocated for peace reform.

Unfortunately, Mary suffered from glaucoma. By 1886, she also needed to curtail her practice. </span><br /><br /><span>Mary passed away in Philadelphia on January 28, 1900, and is buried in that city's Fair Hill Burial Ground.</span>
