Pioneers, Farmers, and Patriots: Roots in New England

By Priscilla L Partridge

Laura, a 19th century rural Massachusetts school teacher, and Miriam, a 20th century ROTC captain in Ohio, bookend the stories of their adventurous women ancestors, many of whom migrated from the Atlantic Coast to interior untamed, forested, and mountainous lands during the 1700s and 1800s. These women, many of them named Sarah or Sally, supported their fathers and husbands in these treks to New Hampshire and Vermont to start farms or businesses. Follow the families of Jones, Brown, Davis, Youngman, and Everett as they carried out patriotic and military service for our new democracy as well as contributed to the economies of Corinth, Bradford, Washington, and Hyde Park, Vt., and Brighton, Mass.
