Description
An account of the resource
<span>Author Abba Louise Goold Woolson was born on her family compound in Windham, Maine, on April 30, 1838. She was the daughter of author and Maine historian William Goold. Her family had long-established roots in Maine and resided in Windham for several generations.</span><br /><br /><span>Abba received an education from the Portland public schools and attended the Girls' High School. She graduated from the Girls' High School as valedictorian in 1856. This year would prove to be exciting for Abba as it was also the year she married her high school principal, Professor Moses Woolson, and was first published in New York's </span><em>Home Journal</em><span>.</span><br /><br /><span>While living in Portland, Maine, Abba went on to start a successful and robust career as an author. She penned a series of popular poems for the </span><em>Portland Transcript</em><span>, a publication she contributed to for four years. Through the course of her writing career, she published dozens of essays, lectures, poems, and collections. In 1874, Abba edited and contributed to "Dress Reform," a series of lectures by women physicians of Boston on "Dress as It Effects the Health of Women." The lectures were originally delivered in the prior year as part of a dress-reform series sponsored by the New England Women’s Club. In this work, Abba amplified the voices of physicians speaking out against impractical dress.</span><br /><br /><span>Through her work as a teacher, she passed down her writing skills and wisdom. Abba was a teacher at the Mt. Auburn Girls' School and the Concord High School. Her talent as a poet led to several speaking engagements, including Portland's celebration of the Maine Centennial and the dedication of the Fowler Library in Concord, New Hampshire. Being one of New England's premier writers, it's no surprise that Abba served in many literary groups and societies. Her most notable commitments were serving as president of the Castilian Club and the Massachusetts Society for the University Education of Women.</span><br /><br /><span>Aside from her devotion to writing, teaching, and reform, Abba traveled extensively. Her travels included visiting the West Coast of the United States, Europe, and Morocco.</span><br /><br /><span>Abba passed away on February 6, 1921, at the age of 82.</span>

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.

A name given to the resource
SEDGWICK, Miss Catharine Maria
Description
An account of the resource
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Born in Stockbridge, MA, Catharine Maria Sedgwick was the sixth of the seven surviving children of Theodore Sedgwick and Pamela Dwight Sedgwick. Catharine’s mother was ill for most of her childhood and died when Catharine was seventeen.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> A year later, her father remarried Penelope Russell. For most of Catharine’s childhood, her father was away from home for more than half of each year pursuing a political career with six terms in the Continental Congress, U.S. House of Representatives, Speaker of the House, Senator from Massachusetts, and a Massachusetts Supreme Court Justice,</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> and then passed away in 1813 when Catharine was twenty-three.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Although Catharine did not go to college, she considered herself to have been raised in a highly intellectual home:</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">"I was reared in an atmosphere of high intelligence. My father had uncommon mental vigor. So had my brothers. Their daily habits, and pursuits, and pleasures were intellectual, and I naturally imbibed from them a kindred taste" <a href="https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=wu.89098008162&view=2up&seq=278"><i>(Life and Letters of Catharine M. Sedgwick: </i>46-47)</a>.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When she was ten, Catharine could be found during her school lunch hour under her desk munching and reading Rollins’s </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Ancient History.</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> While her four brothers followed in their father’s footsteps and became lawyers, they encouraged Catharine to pursue her writing, and she published her first book at age thirty-three.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Professionally, Catharine went on to become a successful and prolific author on a wide variety of topics in six novels, over one-hundred short stories and sketches, as well as domestic novellas, advice manuals, biographies, religious tracts, travelogues, and children’s books.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> She is considered to be one of the founders of American literature and enjoyed national and international renown during her lifetime. It is noteworthy that Catharine and Martha Washington were the only women selected for inclusion in the first volume of the </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">National Portrait Gallery of Distinguished Americans</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The indefatigable Catharine continued to write for forty years publishing her last piece at the age of seventy-two.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Catharine also taught at her sister-in-law’s Young Ladies’ School in Lenox, MA and various Sunday schools, including the Isaac T. Hopper Home.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> In her later years, she volunteered for the Female Department of the New York Prison Association (becoming president from 1848 to 1863), which led to her opening the Home for Discharged Female Convicts.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Personally, Catharine chose to become a member of her siblings’ households instead of marrying various suitors.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> For most of her life, she lived and worked in New York City and Stockbridge/Lenox, MA and traveled throughout North America and Europe.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> She also participated in the Berkshire’s literary society and received visits from authors, politicians, activists, and renowned international figures.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Catharine passed away in 1867 at the home of her niece in West Roxbury at the age of seventy-seven.</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> She was remembered as a “true and beautiful soul, a clear and refined intellect, and a singularly sympathetic social nature”</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> (<a href="https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=wu.89098008162&view=2up&seq=278"><i>Life and Letters of Catharine M. Sedgwick: </i>10)</a> with “clear good sense, and graced by a charm of style of which she was the master during her whole life”:</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">"Her unerring sense of rectitude, her love of truth, her ready sympathy, her active and cheerful beneficence, her winning and gracious manners, the perfection of high breeding, make up a character, the idea of which, as it rests on my mind, I would not exchange for any thing in her own interesting works of fiction" (<a href="https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=wu.89098008162&view=2up&seq=278"><i>Life and Letters of Catharine M. Sedgwick:</i> 446).</a></span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Catharine was buried in the family plot in Stockbridge next to her beloved nurse, Elizabeth (“Mum-Bett”)</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Freeman.

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Catharine had used her gift with words to memorialized Mum-Bett’s noble life in her article “Slavery in New England” in 1853 (</span><span style="font-weight: 400;"><a href="https://www.google.com/books/edition/Bentley_s_Miscellany/8-ARAAAAYAAJ?hl=en&gbpv=0">Miss Sedgewick [sic], “Slavery in New England,” in XXXIV <i>Bentley’s Miscellany</i> at 417, 424 (1853)).</a> Five years after Catharine’s death, Harper & Brothers would do the same for Catharine by publishing a book entitled the </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Life and Letters of Catharine M. Sedgwick</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">, which was edited by her life-long neighbor, Mary E.

She also was very involved with the Pennsylvania Peace Society, the American Anti-Slavery Society, and women's suffrage activities.

Description
An account of the resource
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Helen Morton Smith was born in Sullivan Harbor, Maine, on December 12, 1859. After she was educated at a convent in Michigan, Helen returned to Maine and became a teacher. By 1888, Helen was teaching at her own private school in Bar Harbor, Maine.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Desiring to become a journalist, she changed her career course. Helen moved to Boston, Massachusetts, and became a reporter for the </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Bar Harbor Record</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">, as the Boston correspondent, and Boston's </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Saturday Evening Gazette. </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">She was an early member of the</span><a href="http://marykatemcmaster.org/WOC/items/show/179"><span style="font-weight: 400;"> New England Woman's Press Association</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, serving as the recording secretary until April of 1891. (Lord, 54) At that time, she returned to Maine to become managing editor of the </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Bar Harbor Record</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">, but her tenure there came to an end when the new owner fired her. She moved back to Boston and wrote for the </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Boston Home Journal </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">(Vandenberg and Shettleworth)</span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">.</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> Helen was a determined journalist. As the </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Savannah Courier </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">of January 14, 1892, noted: "MISS HELEN SMITH, who edited the Bar Harbor Record last summer, is said to be the only editor who succeeded in procuring an interview with Mr. Blaine" (1).</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In 1893, Helen returned to Sullivan Harbor, bought the </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Bar Harbor Record,</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> and became managing editor of the newspaper (Vandenberg and Shettleworth). In addition, she was manager of the Bar Harbor Press Co., a job printing establishment tied to the </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Bar Harbor Record.</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> By 1897, Helen was catering to, and making a profit off of, the many wealthy people who flocked to the area during the warm weather by issuing semi-weekly editions of </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">The</span></i> <i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Society Journal of Mt. Desert Island. </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Helen retired from the </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Bar Harbor Record</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;"> in November of 1904 (</span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Maine Press Association Report</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">, 33). She became publisher of <em>Bar Harbor Life</em> in 1918, continuing in this position for several years. While spending the winter in Boston in 1923, Helen wrote “Jottings from Boston” for <em>The Bangor News</em>. Later that year, she was run over while in Boston and suffered serious injuries. Helen passed away on December 16, 1923, and was buried in Sullivan Harbor’s York Hill Cemetery.</span></p>

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.

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>

Description
An account of the resource
<p><span>Louisa Morton Willard Greene was born in Ashburnham, Massachusetts, on May 23, 1819. She worked in a woolen mill in Dedham, Massachusetts, where she began writing, and later taught in Portsmouth, New Hampshire.</span><br /><br /><span>After marrying businessman and politician Jonas Greene in 1841, Louisa became the mother of a son, Jonas Willard Greene, who was stillborn, two younger sons, Willard Jonas Greene and George Henry Greene, and five daughters, Martha, Estelle, Christina, Wilma, and Charlena. The family lived in Peru, Maine. </span></p>
<p><span>Louisa was involved in many philanthropic and reform activities, including ministering to the sick using the Water Cure, and participating in philanthropy, anti-slavery reform, temperance reform, and suffrage efforts. Louisa utilized her public speaking and journalistic talents on behalf of the causes she believed in.</span></p>
<p><span>Before the Civil War, Louisa wrote poetry, contributed articles to the </span><em>Oxford Democrat</em><span>, and led anti-slavery efforts in her area </span>As her daughter Christina later<span> </span><a href="https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83009653/1900-04-10/ed-1/seq-3/#date1=1789&index=0&rows=20&searchType=advanced&language=&sequence=0&words=Greene+GREENE+Louisa+LOUISA+M&proxdistance=5&date2=1963&ortext=&proxtext=&phrasetext=Louisa+M.+Greene&andtext=&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">remembered</a>, Louisa was very active in the war effort: "During the civil war Mrs. Greene's patriotic labors were untiring. In addition to multitudinous household duties, which were always faithfully performed, she took upon herself the labor of collecting, preparing and forwarding hospital supplies for the boys at the front who were so dear to her heart."</p>
<p><span>In 1869, Louisa's family moved to Manassas, Virginia, residing at the home they named Birmingham. She became a widow four years later. </span></p>
<p><span>Louisa passed away in Washington, D.C. on March 5, 1900, and her ashes were buried in the family plot at St. Paul's Cemetery in Alexandria, Virginia. In addition to Christina's beautiful obituary, Louisa's </span><span>daughter Estelle also penned a farewell announcement and included a</span><a href="https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83009653/1900-04-10/ed-1/seq-3/#date1=1789&index=0&rows=20&searchType=advanced&language=&sequence=0&words=Greene+GREENE+Louisa+LOUISA+M&proxdistance=5&date2=1963&ortext=&proxtext=&phrasetext=Louisa+M.+Greene&andtext=&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><span> </span>poem</a><span> that she had written about her mother's passing. Within her tribute, Estelle included Louisa's motto: "Help for the living and hope for the dead."</span><br /><br /><span>At the National American Woman Suffrage Association Convention in February of 1902, it was announced that Louisa had bequeathed $100 to the organization.</span></p>

Description
An account of the resource
<p><span>Elocutionist and journalist Corinne Stocker was born in Orangeburg, South Carolina on August 21, 1871, but she lived most of her life in Atlanta, Georgia. She was an extremely intelligent and talented woman. As her </span><em>A Woman of the Century </em><span> </span><a href="https://archive.org/stream/bub_gb_zXEEAAAAYAAJ#page/n693/mode/2up/search/21st+August" target="_blank" rel="noopener">profile</a><span> notes:</span><br /><br /><span>"At an early age Corinne showed a decided histrionic talent. In her ninth year she won the Peabody medal for elocution in the Atlanta schools over competitors aged from eight to twenty-five years. In 1889, she was placed in the Cincinnati College of Music, where she made the most brilliant record in the history of the school, completing a four year course in seven months."</span><br /><br /><span>After graduation, Corinne conducted parlor readings and taught elocution. She was a very popular teacher, but after a year she decided to forge a journalism career and joined the </span><em>Atlanta Journal.</em><br /><br /><span>In March of 1892, when she was just twenty, Corinne's "Field of Woman's Work" was published in </span><em>Atlanta Journa</em><span><em>l</em> and then reprinted in </span><a href="https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn93067777/1892-03-16/ed-1/seq-4/#date1=1789&index=6&rows=20&words=Corinne+Stocker&searchType=basic&sequence=0&state=&date2=1924&proxtext=Corinne+Stocker&y=0&x=0&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>The Herald and News</em></a><span>.</span><br /><br /><span>She was a member of the Governing Board of the Georgia Women's Press Club, where her colleagues included Leonora Beck and Ellen J. Dortch,</span><br /><br /><span>During the time of the Atlanta Exposition in 1895, the </span><a href="https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/2016270502/1895-11-11/ed-1/seq-6/#date1=1890&index=4&rows=20&words=Corinne+Stocker&searchType=basic&sequence=0&state=&date2=1947&proxtext=Corinne+Stocker&y=0&x=0&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Waterbury Democrat</em></a><span> of Connecticut noted Corinne as one of the "leading women" journalists in Atlanta. It also noted her female colleagues at the <em>Atlanta Journal</em>, Mary Louise Huntley, Brent Whiteside, and Mary Jackson, as well as <a href="http://marykatemcmaster.org/WOC/items/show/26" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Emily Verdery Battey</a> and other prominent Georgia women</span><br /><br /><span>On June 17, 1896, Corinne </span><a href="https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn84026965/1896-06-03/ed-1/seq-3/#date1=1789&index=2&rows=20&words=Corinne+Stocker&searchType=basic&sequence=0&state=&date2=1924&proxtext=Corinne+Stocker&y=0&x=0&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">married</a><span> Thaddeus E. Horton, another South Carolina native who had become managing editor of the </span><em>Atlanta Journa</em><span>l in late 1894, at St. Luke's Church in Atlanta. The couple lived in Atlanta until they moved to New York City in late 1897. The </span><em>Anderson Intelligencer</em><span> of </span><a href="https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn84026965/1897-10-20/ed-1/seq-5/#date1=1789&index=7&rows=20&searchType=advanced&language=&sequence=0&words=Horton+Mrs+Thaddeus&proxdistance=5&date2=1963&ortext=&proxtext=&phrasetext=Mrs.+Thaddeus+Horton&andtext=&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">October 20, 1897,</a><span> noted the </span><em>Atlanta Journal'</em><span>s piece about their move:</span><br /><br /><span>"Mr. and Mrs. Thaddeus Horton have scores of friends who will read with mingled emotions of interest, congratulations and regret that they leave soon to make their home in New York. Mrs. Horton has lived in Atlanta all her life and Mr. Horton for the past seven years; and both have warm friends who hate to see them go, and yet who realize that the going means literary advancement. Mr. Horton has accepted a position on the Times, and Mrs. Horton will pursue her literary work at the great center of things with increased advantage."</span><br /><br /><span>Unfortunately, their life in New York was not as happy as it was anticipated to be. Thad served as political editor of <em>T</em></span><em>he New York Times</em><span> until he died of typhoid fever on November 21, 1899. The next April, Corinne, who had moved back to Atlanta and was living with her mother, gave birth to their daughter, Thaddesia Edgarda. </span><br /><br /><span>While raising her infant in 1900, Corinne </span><a href="https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn88056164/1900-10-19/ed-1/seq-4/#date1=1789&index=0&rows=20&searchType=advanced&language=&sequence=0&words=Horton+Mrs+Thaddeus&proxdistance=5&date2=1963&ortext=&proxtext=&phrasetext=Mrs.+Thaddeus+Horton&andtext=&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wrote</a><span> for the September and October volumes of </span><em>Ladies' Home Journal. </em><span>She continued writing throughout the decade, contributing to </span><em>House Beautiful</em><span> and </span><em>Uncle Remus's Magazine</em><span>.</span><br /><br /><span>In 1909, Corinne founded the Atlanta Players' Club and was in charge of a benefit performance at the Grand Opera House. She also directed a performance of an Oscar Wilde play. Corine continued her writing as well, contributing "Old South in American Architecture" to the </span><em>Uncle Remus's Magazine</em><span> for October, 1909.</span></p>
<p><span>During Theodore Roosevelt’s 1912 Presidential Campaign, Corinne was chair of the “Georgia Moosettes” for Atlanta’s Fifth Congressional District. She and numerous other Georgian women supported Roosevelt’s Progressive platform because they saw it as a positive force for women.</span><br /><br /><span>Corinne was married to Chauncey Smith by 1920, a marriage that lasted until his death in the early 1930s. She lived in Atlanta with her daughter for many years, then she moved to Baldwin in the 1940s. Corinne passed away in Fulton, Georgia on September 11, 1947 and was buried in Atlanta's Crest Lawn Cemetery.</span></p>

Description
An account of the resource
<span>Stella A. Gaines Fifield was born in Paw Paw, Michigan on June 1, 1845. </span><span>She later lived in Taylor Falls, Minnesota and graduated from Chicago Seminary, Minnesota. </span><br /><br /><span>Early in her career, Stella was a teacher in Osceola WI, but she made her major mark in journalism. After marrying newspaper editor Samuel S. Fifield and starting a family, Stella wrote for <em>The Polk County Press</em>, a paper he edited. She also contributed to his next newspaper, <em>The Bayfield Press</em>. </span><span>In 1871,</span><em> </em><span>Samuel and Stella were two of the original settlers of Ashland, Wisconsin. When <em>The Bayfield Press</em> became </span><em>The Ashland Press</em><span> in 1872, Stella was affiliated with this paper. From 1877, when Sam started </span><em>The</em><span> </span><em>Bayfield Press</em><span> again, to 1880, she wrote for both papers. Speaking of Stella, the </span><a href="https://books.google.com/books?id=kysEAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA4&lpg=PA4&dq=Stella+Grimes+Fifield&source=bl&ots=hUJrXedO0M&sig=AGu144dTTF1qHn5utKuDpCHvay0&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjQgNDsoZjUAhVJ2IMKHV-1CP0Q6AEISDAI#v=onepage&q=Stella%20Grimes%20Fifield&f=false" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Commemorative Biographical Record of the Upper Lake Region</em><span> </span></a><span>noted: "she was and is not only a writer of ability, but was capable of rendering practical assistance in the typographical work of the newspaper office" (4).</span><br /><br /><span>The Fifields lived at Evergreen, a beautiful home in Ashland. Samuel became postmaster and was involved in politics. In 1881, he became Lieutenant Governor. Stella served as a leader in the Ashland Chapter of the Chippewa Presbytery and was active in various charitable associations. </span><br /><br /><span>Stella and Sam established a camping resort, Camp Stella, on Sand Island in 1886. As Jane Celia Busch explains:</span><br /><br /><span>"Sam Fifield and his wife Stella began to camp on Sand Island in 1881....In 1886 they camped on the property which became Camp Stella, and soon after they purchased the property and began developing a permanent camp. While the Fifields sought relief on Sand Island for Stella's hay fever, their camping vacations were part of a popular trend...Organized, communal camps such as Camp Stella offered a more civilized camping experience, with hired help to do the work and other guests to share in recreational activities...It was an affluent, often prominent, clientele....Sam Fifield's yacht <em>Stella</em> was used for transportation from the mainland and for pleasure cruises around the islands" (310-311).</span><br /><br /><span>The Fifields also enjoyed trips with others. In August of 1890, along with Sam and other members of the Wisconsin Press Association, Stella boarded a Pullman sleeper car on the Northern Pacific Railroad for a </span><a href="https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn85033078/1890-08-14/ed-1/seq-1/#date1=1789&index=1&rows=20&searchType=advanced&language=&sequence=0&words=Fifield+Mrs+Sam&proxdistance=5&date2=1963&ortext=&proxtext=&phrasetext=Mrs.+Sam+Fifield&andtext=&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">trip</a><span> to Yellowstone National Park. </span><a href="http://marykatemcmaster.org/WOC/items/show/19176" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ella A.

Description
An account of the resource
<span>Ella Bagnell Kendrick, a native of Plymouth, Massachusetts, graduated from Plymouth High School when she was just sixteen. After she married, she moved to Meriden, Connecticut and lived in that state for the rest of her life. Having a keen interest in science, she was very involved with the Meriden Scientific Association.</span><br /><br /><span>While her </span><em>A Woman of the Century</em><span> profile heading lists Ella as a temperance reformer, she was involved in many activities and causes. </span><br /><br /><span>Just as she had worked with her husband's business when she lived in Meriden, Ella became associate editor of her husband's periodical, </span><em>New England Home</em><span>, when they settled in Hartford. She utilized her editorial experience in 1899 when she became editor of </span><a href="https://archive.org/details/talkstales6111unse" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Talks and Tales</em></a><span>, "a monthly magazine composed as to text and type entirely by the blind" (</span><em>Evening Star</em><span>,</span><em> </em><span>December 28, 1899).</span><br /><br /><span>An education advocate, Ella wrote to </span><em>Woman's Journal</em><span> in 1896 about the many Connecticut women involved on educational boards in the state.</span><br /><br /><span>Also a supporter of women's rights, she was an active member of the Equal Rights Association and was corresponding secretary of the Connecticut Woman's Suffrage Association. In 1896 and 1897, she was very involved with the movement by the Equal Rights Association to erect a statue in Hartford in honor of Harriet Beecher Stowe.</span><br /><br /><span>Her work for the temperance cause involved being a member of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union and a leader of the Prohibition Party in Meriden, New Haven, and Hartford. She spoke about temperance at the 1907 New Haven County W.C.T.U. meeting and about "Women As Citizens" at the 1922 meeting. In addition, she was Superintendent of the Demorest Medal Contests.</span><br /><br /><span>Ella combined her interests in women's rights and temperance by speaking on 'How to Use the Ballot" at the W.C.T. U. Institute in June, 1916. The</span><em> Norwich Bulletin</em><span> reported: "[s]he gave a most interesting talk, citing instances to show the way it has been used for good in many places."</span><br /><span> </span><br /><span>She also joined with women of her Unitarian faith, being a member of the Connecticut Valley Associate Alliance of Unitarian Women and speaking at its 1922 conference.</span><br /><br /><span>As Ella's </span><em>A Woman of the Century</em><span> profile notes, "She is a woman of active habits and strong character, and she makes her influence felt in any cause that enlists her sympathies" (434).</span>

HILL, Mrs. Eliza Trask
Description
An account of the resource
<span>Eliza </span><span class="il">Trask</span><span> Hill, a native of Warren, Massachusetts, was born on May 10, 1840. Her profile lists her as a woman suffragist and journalist, but she also was a wife, a mother, a teacher, and a supporter of several different causes.</span><br /><br /><span>With a father and grandfather who were ministers and parents who were both active in reform efforts, Eliza was raised in an atmosphere with people who gave back to their communities. She followed their lead early in her life, presenting a flag to the Fifteenth Regiment of Massachusetts and speaking at that event. She also taught for ten years, including time teaching in Pittsburgh, beginning a career of passionate engagement with education. Eliza married John Lange Hill in 1866 and became a mother to three children. </span><br /><br /><span>Despite her domestic responsibilities, Eliza found time to toil for the many causes she believed in. As her </span><em>A Woman of the Century</em><span> profile explains, Eliza "labored earnestly for the redemption of abandoned women, but, believing that preventive is more effectual than reformatory work, she has identified herself with the societies that care for and help the working girls" (380). An 1887 </span><a href="https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn84023253/1887-07-28/ed-1/seq-4/#date1=1789&sort=date&date2=1963&searchType=advanced&language=&sequence=0&index=2&words=Eliza+Trask&proxdistance=5&rows=20&ortext=&proxtext=&phrasetext=Eliza+Trask&andtext=&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">article</a><span> in the </span><em>St. Johnsbury Caledonian</em><span> discussed how she and Ellen M.

Description
An account of the resource
<p><span>Emma McAvoy was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, on October 23, 1841. Author and lecturer are the occupations listed at the beginning of her </span><em>A Woman of the Century</em><span> profile, but Miss McAvoy's career included other professions. </span><br /><br /><span>Like many women of her time, this daughter of an Irish immigrant began her career as a teacher. In April of 1859, Emma was appointed as a <a href="https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn88077413/1859-04-12/ed-1/seq-3/#date1=1789&index=7&rows=20&searchType=advanced&language=&sequence=0&words=Emma+McAvoy&proxdistance=5&date2=1917&ortext=&proxtext=&phrasetext=Emma+McAvoy&andtext=&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">teacher</a> in Cincinnati's Third District with a salary of twenty dollars. Her salary may have been low because she was hired in April, since she is listed as having earned <a href="https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn84028745/1860-06-30/ed-1/seq-3/#date1=1789&index=15&rows=20&searchType=advanced&language=&sequence=0&words=Emma+McAvoy&proxdistance=5&date2=1917&ortext=&proxtext=&phrasetext=Emma+McAvoy&andtext=&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">three hundred dollars </a>the next year. Later, Emma served as a principal in Kansas City, Missouri. </span></p>
<p><span>Upon her return to Cincinnati, Emma began to deliver lectures. Her </span><em>A Woman of the Century</em><span> profile notes: "She was one of the first women who presented parlor lectures on literature in the West" (481). </span><span>On February 11, 1879, </span><a href="https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn85025759/1879-02-11/ed-1/seq-4/#date1=1789&index=1&rows=20&searchType=advanced&language=&sequence=0&words=Emma+McAvoy&proxdistance=5&date2=1924&ortext=&proxtext=&phrasetext=Emma+McAvoy&andtext=&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>The Cincinnati Daily Star</em></a><span> advertised one of her upcoming lectures: </span><span>"Miss Emma McAvoy will deliver, at College Hall, on the evening of the 28th of February, an evening lecture on the subject, 'The Ode and Errors in Conversation.'"

Description
An account of the resource
<span>Artist and inventor Carrie M. Shoaff was born in Huntington, IN on April 2, 1849. <br /><br />By 1880, she and her husband Urias Shoaff were living in Fort Wayne, IN. In 1884, she exhibited three of her paintings in Keil's bookstore in Fort Wayne. <em>The Fort Wayne Gazette</em> of July 6, 1884 published anarticle about them, giving details about the paintings and praising Mrs. Shoaff's work as being "in every way worthy of notice."<br /><br /> On Thursday, January 10, 1895, <em>The Fort Wayne Weekly Gazette</em> published an article, "Eminent Women. The Part They Are Taking in the World's Affairs," about the <em>A Woman of the Century</em> book and focusing on Carrie M. Shoaff. Speaking of Carrie, it noted: <br /><br />"Among the collection appears a finely executed photogravure and a biographical sketch of a well-known Fort Wayne artist and inventor, Mrs. Carrie M. Shoaff. It tells in detail of the lady's success in the invention of a method of inventing imitation limoges ware and the demand that has everywhere been created for the product. Our own people are well aware of the handsome offers that have been made the artist to remove to the east and establish a studio, yet her interest in her home where were the scenes of her disappointments and her final triumph have overbalanced all, and she continues her work here. <br /><br />Not only in this field has Mrs. Shoaff been successful, but as a writer the lady possesses much ability. Many of the productions of her pen have delighted GAZETTE readers and all have reflected much credit upon her skill and ability. Many articles are written over a nom-de-plume while others are unsighed. All bear the unmistakable imprint of genius. It is a pleasure to chronicle the success of such persons, because it is deserved, and the GAZETTE sincerely congratulates Mrs. Shoaff and trusts that the future may hae still greater achievements and victories in store for her."<br /><br /><em>A Woman of the Centur</em>y noted that Mrs. Shoaff had established an art school in Fort Wayne and was teaching many women about limoge work. She continued that work for several years, as Carrie is listed in the 1900 Federal Census as living on Columbia Avenue in Fort Wayne with her husband Urias and as being an Art Teacher. <br /><br />On April 20, 1917, the <em>Fort Wayne News</em> published Carrie's letter to the editor about the death of her friend S. B. McManus, a poet and "the leading spirit of the 'Bohemian Club.'"<br /><br />She passed away in Fort Wayne on March 15, 1929.</span>

Emma Lee Benedict was born in Clifton Park, NY on November 16, 1857. She later lived in New York, NY, Washington, DC, and Hyde Park, NY.
Description
An account of the resource
<p><span>Emma Lee Benedict, born on November 16, 1857, was a native of Clifton Park, New York. She was an editor, educator, author, public speaker, and temperance reformer. Passionate about education from a young age, Emma was a graduate of the State Normal School at Albany and the City University of New York. In addition to teaching, Benedict edited “</span><i><span>The New York School Journal.”</span></i><span></span></p>
<p><span>Also interested in writing for children, Emma penned “</span><i><span>Pieces to Speak</span></i><span>.” Lee and Shepard of Boston published this book which </span><a href="http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn94052989/1893-05-28/ed-1/seq-43/#date1=1789&index=0&rows=20&words=Benedict+Emma+Lee&searchType=basic&sequence=0&state=&date2=1924&proxtext=Emma+Lee+Benedict&y=0&x=0&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=1"><span>received praise</span></a><span> from </span><i><span>The Morning Call </span></i><span>of San Francisco. Similarly, T</span><i><span>he New Haven Daily Morning Carrier Journal </span></i><span>gave a positive review</span><i><span> to </span></i><span>Emma's </span><i><span>The Gregory Guards,</span></i><span> another book for young people, calling it: "A story of reaping good by doing good, bright and entertaining and full of life, incident and good sense."</span></p>
<p><span>Through her work with the Woman's Christian Temperance Union, Emma was affiliated with Mary H. Hunt. Speaking of her extensive research related to temperance, Benedict's </span><i><span>A Woman of the Century</span></i><span> profile notes: "There is probably no other person more familiar than she with the whole subject of the nature and effects of alcohol on the human system" (74). She and Hunt exerted a great deal of effort preparing teaching manuals on the topic.</span></p>
<p><span>Emma married C. Frederick Transeau in Boston on November 28, 1895. In 1900, she was living in Westwood, Massachusetts, and working as a journalist. During the first decades of the new century, Emma continued her crusade against alcohol by writing articles, non-fiction books, and temperance fiction. In addition, Emma was an officer of the Scientific Temperance Federation. Beginning in 1923, she wrote the “What the Current Magazines are Saying about Prohibition and Law Enforcement” column in <em>The American Issue</em>. Emma published her last book, <em>Knotty Problems Regarding Moderate Drinking</em>, in 1935. She passed away in Boston two years later and was buried in Clifton Park Baptist Cemetery, Clifton Park, New York.</span></p>

Description
An account of the resource
<span>Hannah Perkins Dodge was born in North Littleton, Massachusetts, on February 16, 1821. She dedicated her life to the education of young people, especially young women, and to philanthropic causes. Hannah taught as a young woman and attended Lawrence Academy and Townsend Female Academy. After graduating from the latter school, she became Townsend Female Academy's principal. In addition, she taught in Norfolk, Virginia, for a few months.</span><br /><br /><span>Seven years after beginning her tenure at Townsend, Hannah moved to Worcester, Massachusetts, to teach at </span><a href="https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=uc2.ark:/13960/t6n01bp38;view=1up;seq=54;size=125" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Oread Collegiate Institute</a><span>, a school for young women that had been founded by Eli Thayer in 1848. She served as Preceptress and later as Acting Principal, while also teaching Moral Philosophy and Mathematics. One of her colleagues at Oread was Elizabeth Grout Arms, a friend who, like Hannah, had previously taught at Townsend Female Academy. According to </span><a href="https://archive.org/details/teachersmesagem00dodg/page/14/mode/2up" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Rev. William Jacob Cloues</a><span>, Hannah's advisors included </span><a href="http://www.marykatemcmaster.org/MDP/items/show/21" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Francis Wayland</a><span> </span><span>(Brown's President), Rev. Dr. Heman Lincoln Wayland (pastor of Worcester's Main St. Baptist Church), </span><a href="http://www.marykatemcmaster.org/MDP/items/show/40" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dr. Edward Everett Hale</a><span> (pastor of Worcester's Church of the Unity), and Hon. Isaac Davis (a lawyer and politician who served as Worcester's mayor).</span><br /><br /><span>In 1859, Hannah left Oread and spent a year traveling and studying in Europe. Upon her return in 1861, she opened her own school, Codman Hill Young Ladies' School, in Dorchester, Massachusetts. By 1868, Hannah's friend Elizabeth was living in Kalamazoo, Michigan, where her husband, Rev. Dr. Heman Lincoln Wayland, had become a professor at Kalamazoo College. Since Hannah moved to Michigan in 1868 to become Lady Principal at Kalamazoo College, it appears likely that Rev. Wayland had mentioned Hannah's talents to the college's leaders. Later, she returned to New England, serving in the same capacity at the co-ed New London Literary and Scientific Institution (later Colby Academy) in New London, New Hampshire.</span><br /><br /><span>While she officially retired in 1877, and returned to Littleton, Massachusetts, Hannah was not done giving back. In addition to being a philanthropist, she served as the superintendent of schools in Littleton, as a trustee of the Reuben Hoar Library, and as the president of the local Woman's Christian Temperance Union. </span><br /><br /><span>Hannah Perkins Dodge passed away in Littleton on January 11, 1896, and was buried in Westlawn Cemetery.</span>

She graduated from Oberlin College in 1847, with honors. <br /><br />Early in her career, she was an Antislavery lecturer, but Lucy's lifelong passion was advocating for women's suffrage.

Description
An account of the resource
Louisa May Alcott, author of <em>Little Women</em> and several other books, was born in Germantown, PA on November 29, 1832, but she spent most of her life in Concord, MA. <br /><br />Alcott lived in Boston with her family during her youth and moved with them to Harvard where her father, transcendentalist Amos Bronson Alcott, had formed the Fruitlands community. Later, the family moved back to Concord. During the Civil War, Louisa worked as a nurse in Washington, D.C. While an illness halted her service shortly after it had started, the experience was the inspiration for <a href="https://hdl.handle.net/2027/uc2.ark:/13960/t0xp6x47p" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Hospital Sketches (1863)</em></a>. James Redpath, her publisher, also published her <em>On Picket Duty, and Other Tales</em> the next year.<br /><br />During her career, Louisa wrote numerous books under her own name and several thrillers under her pseudonym, A. M. Barnard. Her most famous book was <a href="https://hdl.handle.net/2027/uc2.ark:/13960/t4gm82m68" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Little Women</em></a> published by Roberts Brothers in 1868. This book was illustrated by her sister May Alcott Nieriker, an artist whose profile is in A Woman of the Century. Louisa also edited <em>Merry's Museum</em> from 1868 to 1879 and wrote pieces for periodicals such as <em><a href="http://marykatemcmaster.org/WOC/items/show/23" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Atlantic Monthly</a></em> and <em><a href="http://marykatemcmaster.org/WOC/items/show/22" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Independent</a></em>. <br /><span class="tag"> <br />Louisa's extensive social network included authors <a href="http://marykatemcmaster.org/WOC/items/show/103" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ednah Dow Cheney</a>, <a href="http://www.marykatemcmaster.org/MDP/items/show/19" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ralph Waldo Emerson</a>, <a href="http://marykatemcmaster.org/WOC/items/show/211" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Elizabeth Powell Bond</a>, Henry David Thoreau, and her uncle, reformer Samuel Joseph May.<br /><br />By 1883, Louisa was living in Concord and caring for both her elderly father and her niece Lu, whose mother May had passed away shortly after her birth. <a href="https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn82015679/1883-01-27/ed-1/seq-4/#date1=1880&sort=date&date2=1890&searchType=advanced&language=&sequence=0&index=3&words=Alcott+ALCOTT+Louisa+May&proxdistance=5&rows=20&ortext=&proxtext=&phrasetext=Louisa+May+Alcott&andtext=&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>The Indianapolis Journal</em> </a>reprinted Louisa's letter to <a href="http://marykatemcmaster.org/WOC/items/show/43" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lucy Stone</a> that while she was interested in woman's suffrage, her family obligations prevented her from attending the Woman's Suffrage National Convention. Louisa also expressed her frustration at the lack of interest in the topic by many of Concord's women and hoped that the women at the Convention could help to provide motivation for "these slothful sisters." Later that year, Louisa was one of ten women who sent a joint letter to the Massachusetts and Republican State Central Committees. As <a href="https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn85034374/1883-09-22/ed-1/seq-1/#date1=1880&sort=date&date2=1890&searchType=advanced&language=&sequence=0&index=4&words=Alcott+Louisa+May&proxdistance=5&rows=20&ortext=&proxtext=&phrasetext=Louisa+May+Alcott&andtext=&dateFilterType=yearRange&page=1" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>The Greenville Times</em></a> notes, "They believe that the establishment of political rights for women is essential to the highest good of the state." The other women were Lucy Stone, Julia Ward Howe, Mary G. Ames, Mary A. Livermore, Mary F. Eastman, Ednah D. Cheney, Mary C. Shannon, Mary Shannon, and Susan E. B. Channing. Louisa continued to support the cause during the 1880s.<br /><br />She passed away on March 6, 1888 at age fifty-five and was buried in Sleepy Hollow Cemetry in Concord, MA.</span>

Description
An account of the resource
<p><span>Physician, professor, and lecturer Martha H. Mowry hailed from Providence, Rhode Island. Martha lost her mother when she was an infant, and she was devoted to her father throughout her life. She attended a variety of schools, including the Green Street Select School, where she was taught by Margaret Fuller. Martha took an interest in the areas of anatomy and physiology and began discussing medicine with several medical professionals and lecturing on various medical topics. After working with a variety of physicians in Providence and Boston, and impressing physicians from the Female Medical College of Pennsylvania with her competency, Martha received a medical degree from this new institution. She was recruited to become Professor of obstetrics and diseases of women and children there, and she taught until her father requested that she return to Providence. For almost forty years, Martha had a very successful career as a Providence physician.</span><br /><br /><em>The History of Providence County</em><span>, published in 1891 when Martha was in her early seventies, provided a lengthy </span><a href="https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=loc.ark:/13960/t38057w4g;view=1up;seq=158" target="_blank" rel="noopener">biographical sketch</a><span> of Martha which ended by noting: "She is still doing all the professional work it is well for one of her age to do, and is especially interested in educating mothers to a knowledge of the laws of life, physical, mental, and spiritual" (114).</span><br /><br /><span>In addition to her work as a physician, Dr. Mowry was a member of the Providence Physiological Society and the </span><a href="http://marykatemcmaster.org/WOC/items/show/98" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Association for the Advancement of Women.</a><br /><br /><span>In addition to Margaret Fuller, Martha's vast personal network included </span><a href="http://marykatemcmaster.org/WOC/items/show/103" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Edna Dow Cheney</a><span>, </span><a href="http://marykatemcmaster.org/WOC/items/show/30" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lydia Maria Child</a><span>, Julia Ward Howe, and Lucretia Mott.</span></p>

Description
An account of the resource
<p>Vocalist Julie Rosewald was a member of the talented musical family called Eichberg. She was born in Stuttgart, Germany, on March 7, 1850. Her studies began at the conservatory there and continued at the exclusive Royal Theater School in Stuttgart, where only two of the most accomplished and advanced students from the conservatory were selected by the king. From early on, her talent and potential were recognized.</p>
<p>On completing her education, Julie immigrated to the United States, where her sister was already established. In 1869, at the age of nineteen, she married J. H. Rosewald of Baltimore, Maryland. Rosewald also had a musical background, and she performed as a solo violinist as well as a composer.</p>
<p>Soon after, Julie left for Europe to pursue her studies, this time with instructor Marie Von Marra, in Frankfurt. The composer Franz Apt was engaged to tour some of the major US cities, and Mrs. Julie Rosewald was contracted to interpret Apt's work.</p>
<p>In 1875, her career turned to opera and operatic interpretation. Julie made her debut as Marguerite in Toronto and became very successful and popular. More opportunities opened up and she traveled with the Carol Richings Opera Company and Clara Louise Kellogg English Opera Company. She and her husband toured various European cities. As a prima donna with the Emma Abbot Opera Company, Mrs. Julie Rosewald developed her career and eventually concluded her performing, having achieved critical acclaim.</p>
<p>The couple moved to San Francisco in 1884. It was there that she began the next segment of her professional life, as a well-respected vocal instructor and composer. She earned a reputation as a cultural change agent in her adopted city. Fluent in English, German, Italian and French, Mrs. Rosewald was most accomplished.</p>
