I have just been reading letters one of my ancestors, Charlotte Frelinghuysen Allen, ( later Hopkins) wrote to her sister, my 2nd great grandmother, the oldest girl in the family, Elizabeth Lee Allen (later Smith), who had attended the Seminary the previous year, but was now back in Brunswick, Maine, where her father, William Allen, was President of Bowdoin College. Charlotte was attending the school and she said much about it in her letters. I was so curious, I came online and found this. The first thing I found when I Googled was some original reports on he school and a lot about what the curriculum consisted of. How nice to see photos of the actual buildings and of the founders. I wish that the photo of the group of women, one of whom "went on" to do this and that, had a date on it. <br>Glad you have made this available to the public! I have numerous old letters and am enjoying getting to know my ancestors this way, and to supplement the knowledge with photos and the history of the place is so nice. I hope it will be okay if I use a couple of pictures on Ancestry.com. I will give credit.<br>Judith Lee Howard SheaJudy Sheahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16837439303834966097noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5955103558554432375.post-57558511294094100582016-04-20T17:31:13.677-04:002016-04-20T17:31:13.677-04:00hi Melissa, Thanks for your research on this top...hi Melissa,<br> Thanks for your research on this topic. You probably know that the Ipswich Museum has now moved the Ipswich Female Seminary exhibit to the second floor to focus more attention on it. I am interested in adding photos of Zilpah Grant, Mary Lyon, Eunice Caldwell Cowles and (hopefully) John Cowles to the exhibit. Would you be able to tell me where originals of these photos can be found?<br> thanks,<br> Kerry Mackin (kerrylmackin@gmail.com)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5955103558554432375.post-14231528273496938522013-09-02T07:30:35.826-04:002013-09-02T07:30:35.826-04:00Thank you for sharing the work that you are doing ...Thank you for sharing the work that you are doing so well.
