General Notes: Wife - Abbie Louise Marsh
Suffering from pulmonary trouble, in 1888, she with her daughters took up their residence in Kane, McKean County, Pennsylvania, where she remained until 1899, when she accepted a situation as "Instructor of Art" at the State Hospital in Warren. Confirmed in 1876 by the Rt. Rev. McLarren S. T. D., Episcopal bishop of Illinois; member of the Cathedral of S. S. Peter and Paul, Chicago; one of the "Founders" of St. Johns Church, 1889, Kane; member of "Old Colony" and other Colonial Societies; member of the "Lincoln" and "Reade" Family Associations, and a "Daughter of the American Revolution," Charter member of the General Joseph Warren Chapter, Warren, Pennsylvania.
Her education along scholastic and art lines was principally by private instruction; and, as much of the formative period of her life was spent in literary and art circles in Chicago, the advantages derived from such congenial associations were far greater than might be received by the average art student. She was also able to gratify her love for travel, which made a desirable prelude to her later "Home Missionary" work among the women of an unfortunate mental condition.
