Charles E. Stowe, Harriet Beecher Stowe compiled from her letters and journals by her son Charles Edward Stowe, Introductory statement. (search)

Dr. Lyman Beecher, a distinguished Calvinistic divine, her mother Roxanna Foote, his first wife. The little new-comer was ushered into a household of happy, healthy chilldhood. Mrs. Stowe's recollections of her mother are found in a letter to her brother Charles, afterwards published in the Autobiography and correspondence of Lyman Beecher. She says:-- I was between three and four years of age when our mother died, and my personal recollections of her are therefore but few. But the deep in Clare describes his mother's influence is a simple reproduction of my own mother's influence as it has always been felt in her family. Of his deceased wife Dr. Beecher said: Few women have attained to more remarkable piety. Her faith was strong and her prayer prevailing. It was her wish that all her sons should devote

islature and the citizens. The governor (Vance) will preside at both meetings. I like him (the governor) much.

For my year's work in this matter I am to receive $500. On January 14, 1838, Mrs. Stowe's third child, Henry Ellis, was born. It was about this time that the famous reunion of the Beecher family described in Lyman Beecher's Autobiography occurred.
