Notes
a. Note:   Buried next to husband. Attened Oberlin College 1851-53. 5 children. Talented, prolific writer; many letters, diaries, stories preserved. 8th gen. descendant of John Alden & Priscilla Mullens. Teacher in Choctaw Indian School. Harriet's handwritten accounts of her early life and the extreme hardship she and her family endured while traveling to Kansas Terr. in 1855, their struggles to survive under the most wild and primitive conditions, their extreme poverty, their near starvation and the sickness and death of their first born infant daughter Anne Mary, all form a poignant and authentic picture of life in this period. Their toughness and perseverity and faith in the Lord carried them through many years of missionary work in Kansas and finally in 1886 to 92 Pepper St. Pasadena, CA, where, after some years of semi-retirement, they died. Material held by L.U. Jones.
