Scope and Contents

The bulk of these letters to and from Harriet Blanchard and her family members date from the late 1840s to the mid 1850s. They cover Harriet's career as a teacher in Ohio. Included are two teaching certificates dated 1845 and 1855. Harriet did not marry Nathaniel until age 41, and thus was able to devote at least ten years to her teaching career. Arranged chronologically.
