Description
An account of the resource
Inventor Helen Augusta Blanchard was born in Portland, Maine on October 25, 1840. She was the daughter of a wealthy shipowner and businessman. When her father's business failed and he eventually died in 1866, Helen took to patent development and monetized her inventions. Over the course of about 40 years, Helen patented 28 inventions including the zig-zag stitch sewing machine. In 1876, she founded the successful Blanchard Over-Seam Company of Philadelphia.
The May 1, 1913 Washington Evening Star noted: "One of the most important patents granted during the centennial year was an overseaming machine which has become invaluable to manufacturers of knitted fabrics and of various articles of ready-made clothing. It was invented by Miss Helen Augusta Blanchard, who established a large company in Philadelphia."
After living in Philadelphia, she moved to New York City. She passed away in Providence, Rhode Island on January 22, 1922, and was buried in her home of Portland, Maine.

Description
An account of the resource
<span>Agnes Booth, then known as Marion Agnes Land Rookes, was born in Sydney, Australia, on October 4, 1843. She was a dancer as a young woman and came to the United States to dance in San Francisco. However, a heart condition required a change in Agnes's career path from dancing to acting. </span><br /><br /><span>Over the course of her life, she also resided in New York, New York, Boston, Massachusetts, and Manchester-by-the-Sea, Massachusetts. Agnes was a very popular actress who married Junius Brutus Booth, of the famous Booth family of actors. Her connections within the theatre world included theatre luminaries such as </span><a href="http://marykatemcmaster.org/WOC/items/show/176" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kate Bateman</a><span>, John Sleeper Clarke, Augustin Daly, Edwin Forrest, Tom Maguire, and Matilda Charlotte Vining Wood.</span><br /><br /><span>In addition to her life as an actress, Agnes was the mother of Junius Brutus Booth, Algernon G. Booth, Sydney Barton Booth, and Barton J. Booth. Unfortunately, she lost Algernon at the age of seven in 1877, and then Barton, her youngest son, in 1879, when he was just four years old. Four years later, the family mourned the passing of Agnes's husband, Junius Brutus Booth, Jr.</span><br /><br /><span>Agnes married theatre manager John B. Schoeffel in 1885, but she continued to use the name Agnes Booth in her acting career.</span><br /><br /><span>Agnes passed away in Brookline, Massachusetts, on January 2, 1910, and was buried in the Booth family plot in Rosedale Cemetery, Manchester-by-the-Sea.</span>

<div>Clara Louise Burnham, born in Newton, Massachusetts,<span> </span><span>on May 25, </span>1854, spent her early years in New York City. However, her family moved to Chicago when Clara Louise was a young girl, and she lived most of her life there. She was the daughter of Mary Olive Woodman and popular composer George F. Root. Clara Louise, who married Walter Burnham, was a very popular novelist who also penned the lyrics to some of her father's works.<br /><br />Sometimes known as "Edith Douglas," Clara Louise wrote for<span> </span><em>Wide Awake</em><span> </span>early in her career. Her works also appeared in<span> </span><em>St. Nicholas</em><span> </span>and<span> </span><em>Youth's Companion</em>.<br /><br />Her early fiction from the 1880s was published by Chicago’s Henry A. Sumner and Company, while her later work was published by Houghton, Mifflin and Company of Boston and New York and by Grosset & Dunlap of New York. May O. Root, Clara Louise's sister, illustrated her 1884 novel<span> </span><a href="https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=osu.32435009508565;view=1up;seq=13" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>Dearly Bought</em></a>.</div>

In 1915, she hosted actor Robert Dempster, her collaborator on an upcoming novel, at the Moorings.<br /><br />Female screen director Lois Weber adapted<span> </span><em><a href="https://archive.org/details/jewelchapterinhe00burn/page/n5/mode/2up" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jewel: A Chapter in Her Life</a>,<span> </span></em>Clara Louise's 1903 Christian Science novel<em>,<span> </span></em>as the film<span> </span><em>Jewel</em><span> </span>in 1915 and later as<span> </span><em>A Chapter in Her Life</em><span> </span>in 1923.<br /><br />In 1926, Clara Louise was one of many women honored at a breakfast during the Woman's World Fair in Chicago. The next year, she was honored at a dinner by the Society of Midland Authors.<br /><br />Clara Louise passed away on Monday, June 20, 1927, at the Moorings.

<span>Caroline Lathrop Post was born in Ashford, Connecticut, on November 27, 1824, and began her writing career at an early age. Her family later moved to Hartford, Connecticut, and Pittsfield, Massachusetts.</span><br /><br /><span>She married Abner L.

Over time, Caroline gave birth to Charles William, Aurelian, and Carroll. She and her family were members of the First Congregational Church. When the boys were growing up, Carrie "guided her boys in the arts, music, and literature" (Major, 290). She also found time to contribute to several publications, including </span><em>Chicago Advance</em><span>, </span><em>Life and Light</em><span>, </span><em>Golden Rule</em><span>, and </span><em>Floral World.</em><br /><br /><span>In 1886, Caroline's family moved to Fort Worth, Texas.

Since his parents were devoted churchgoers and needed a new church, C.W. donated the money for the First Congregational Church of Fort Worth in 1903 (Major, 292).

A few months later, on October 17, 1914, Carrie passed away in Fort Worth. She was buried in Oak Ridge Cemetery in Springfield, Illinois.</span>

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>

Description
An account of the resource
Martha Reinhard Smallwood Field, known as "Mattie," was born in Lexington, MO, but she spent most of her life in New Orleans, LA. "She was the first woman journalist to draw a salary in that city," according to her profile in <em>A Woman of the Century</em> (289)<br /><br />A journalist, author, and travel writer, Field wrote under the pseudonym "Catharine Cole." During her career, she contributed to periodicals in New Orleans and San Francisco and edited the <em>New Orleans Times-Democrat</em>. <br /><br />In the introduction to Field's <em>Catharine Cole's Book</em>, Mollie Evelyn Moore Davis noted Mattie's many contributions to New Orleans: "To the influence of her pen and brains, New Orleans owes its Training School for Nurses, it's Woman's Exchange, and its Kindergartens"(8). Interested in education for all, Mattie also founded a Circulating Library in New Orleans.

Description
An account of the resource
<p><span>J</span><span>ulia Caroline Ripley Dorr was born on February 13, 1825, in Charleston, South Carolina. She was the daughter of William Young Ripley and Zulma DeLacy Thomas. When Julia was a young girl, her father moved the family to his native Vermont, where he devoted himself to the Rutland marble quarries. After William built the Rutland Opera House, Julia worked to develop women’s appreciation for the arts.</span></p>
<p><span>In 1847, Julia married Hon. Seneca M. Dorr, a lawyer and legislator from New York. They had five children. Seneca encouraged her writing, and he sent Julia's first published poem to “</span><i><span>Union Magazine”</span></i><span> without her knowledge. Her first published short story, “Isabel Leslie,” won her one hundred dollars in prize money. Julia's novel “</span><i><span>Farmingdale”</span></i><span> was published under her pseudonym, Caroline Thomas, again with assistance and support from her husband. In addition to being a wife and mother, Julia was a prolific poet, an author, a wife, a mother, and an inspirational community member. </span></p>
<p><span>After Seneca passed away in 1884, Julia devoted some of her time to another cause. According to her “</span><i><span>A Women of the Century”</span></i><span> profile, "she became the leader of a band of women who founded the Rutland Free Library, the success of which has been so remarkable" (253). Surely, her works were in that library, as Julia’s poetry, stories, essays and letters won respect from her townspeople and famous male writers such as Longfellow, Emerson, Whittier, and Holmes. She rightfully earned her place in American literary history. Julia was honored as Vermont’s “unofficial poet laureate,” and she was bestowed the honor of Doctor of Letters from Middlebury College in 1910. </span></p>
<p><span>Julia Caroline Riley Dorr died on January 18, 1913, and was buried in Rutland's Evergreen Cemetery.</span></p>

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>
