FAMILY HISTORY
The Garrison Family Papers cover five generations of the Garrison family, four generations of the
Wright family, and five generations of the Stephenson family. Detailed biographical sketches exist in standard
reference works as well as biographies of members of the Garrison and Wright families. These include
Dictionary of American Biography (DAB); Notable American Women (NAW); William Lloyd Garrison, 1805–1879: The
Story of His Life Told by His Children; All On Fire: William Lloyd Garrison and the Abolition of Slavery by Henry
Mayer; Growing Up Abolitionist: The Story of the Garrison Children by Harriet Alonso; and James and Lucretia Mott:
Life and Letters by Anna Davis Hallowell.
The Garrison Family
Generation 1: Abijah Garrison and Frances (“Fanny”) Lloyd Garrison
The Garrison Family Papers begin with Abijah Garrison (1773–?) and Frances (“Fanny”) Lloyd Garrison
(1776–1823). Abijah was born in an isolated farming community in New Brunswick, Canada. By the 1790s he
had become a seaman based in St. John. He married Frances Lloyd in 1798, and they settled on the Jemseg
River in New Brunswick. They moved to St. John in 1801. They had two daughters (Mary Ann and Caroline
Eliza) and a son (James Holley). Mary Ann died in infancy, and in 1805 the family moved to Newburyport,
Massachusetts. In December of that year a fourth child, William Lloyd, was born, followed by Elizabeth
Knowlton in 1808. A man of intemperate habits, Abijah abandoned his wife and family shortly after
Elizabeth’s birth. He was never heard from again.
Generation 2: William Lloyd Garrison and Helen Benson Garrison
Frances Lloyd Garrison, abandoned with small children to care for, placed her son William Lloyd (1805–
1879) (see DAB) in the care of Deacon Ezekiel Bartlett. William Lloyd received little schooling, and was
apprenticed in 1818 to Ephraim Allen of the Newburyport Herald. In 1826 he became editor of the Free Press.
When the press failed he became a journeyman printer, and in 1828 he joined with Nathaniel White in editing
the temperance newspaper National Philanthropist. Influenced by Benjamin Lundy, a Quaker, William Lloyd
became interested in the abolition movement, a cause he championed for the next thirty years. He founded
the abolitionist newspaper, The Liberator, in 1831, which he published until 1865. In 1834 he married Helen
Benson, daughter of a retired merchant and member of an abolitionist family. They had seven children:
George Thompson (1836–1904), William Lloyd (1838–1909), Wendell Phillips (1840–1907), Charles Follen
(1842–1849), Helen Frances (“Fanny”) (1844–1928), Elizabeth Pease (1846–1848), and Francis Jackson
(1848–1916). Although there are papers generated by all of the surviving children, those of William Lloyd are
best represented.
Generation 3: Children of William Lloyd Garrison and Helen Benson Garrison
There are seven descendents in Generation 3 of the Garrison family. All of the children of William Lloyd
and Helen Benson Garrison, with the exception of George, followed in their father’s reform footsteps.
Wendell, via his editorship at The Nation, was involved in abolition, freedman’s relief, and racial and sexual
equality. Fanny, following the death of her husband, Henry Villard, became involved in the suffrage
movement and pacifism. Francis, in addition to his position as editor at Houghton Mifflin, championed racial
and sexual equality. A detailed description of all of the children in Generation 3 can be found in Harriet
Alonso’s Growing Up Abolitionist: The Story of the Garrison Children. The primary persons in this generation
represented in the papers are William Lloyd Garrison and Ellen Wright Garrison.
v
William Lloyd Garrison left school at the age of eighteen to begin a business career. In 1855 he became
associated with abolitionist James Buffum and lived with the Buffum family for seven years, where he became
involved in various reform movements. He held clerical and banking positions, and in 1864 he went into the
wool business. William Lloyd established one of the earliest electric light stations in Brockton, Massachusetts,
and also dealt in bonds, retiring from business in 1902. He was, however, a reformer at heart, and up until his
death in 1909 was involved in abolition, women’s rights and suffrage, immigration reform, Armenian and
Russian relief, Irish home rule, anti-imperialism, pacifism, temperance, and free trade. He was also an avid
single taxer and president of the Massachusetts Single Tax League. In 1864 he married Ellen Wright, daughter
of Martha Coffin and David Wright (see Wright Family).
Ellen Wright was born in 1840 and grew up in a Quaker abolitionist community. She was educated at
abolitionist Theodore Weld’s Eagleswood School in Perth Amboy, New Jersey, Sharon Female Seminary in
Darby, Pennsylvania, and Mrs. Sedgwick’s Young Ladies School in Lenox, Massachusetts. Influenced by her
mother’s activism, a life-long friendship with Susan B. Anthony, and the reform movements of her husband,
Ellen was an active life member in the National American Woman Suffrage Association.
Generation 4: Children of William Lloyd Garrison and Ellen Wright Garrison
There are eighteen descendents in Generation 4 of the Garrison family. William Lloyd and Ellen had five
children: Agnes (1866–1950), Charles (1868–1951), Frank Wright (1871–1961), William Lloyd (1874–1964),
and Eleanor (1880–1974). Although there is material on all of the children as well as other family members,
William, Eleanor, and Agnes are the most well represented in these papers.
William graduated from Harvard in 1897 and attended Harvard Law School. He became an investment
banker and in 1908 became a partner in the firm of Perry, Coffin & Burr. When that partnership was
dissolved, he became president of the new firm of Coffin & Burr. According to family members, in hard
times he was known to have reimbursed clients from his own pocket if they lost money from his investments.
He retired in 1933. A reformer at heart his causes included anti-vaccination, anti-imperialism, free trade,
pacifism, and racial and sexual equality. In 1901 he married Edith Alice Stephenson (see also Stephenson
Family).
Edith was born in 1878, the third of seven children of Benjamin Turner and Luda Grant Stephenson. She
was trained as a concert pianist. In addition to raising six children, she was active in the suffrage movement
and was president of the Newton Equal Suffrage League.
Eleanor graduated from Smith College in 1904 and received a Master of Arts degree from Radcliffe in
1906. When she graduated, the suffrage movement was at its peak, and she worked avidly for the vote until
1919. In 1912 she became an organizer for Carrie Chapman Catt who headed the New York State campaign
for women’s suffrage headquartered in New York City. When the campaign ended she became interested in
photography, which occupied her for ten years. In the 1940s she moved to California to care for her sister
Agnes, remaining there with her brother Frank after Agnes’s death.
Generation 5: The children of William Lloyd Garrison and Edith Stephenson Garrison
There are twenty-nine descendents in Generation 5 of the Garrison family. The papers primarily concern
the children of William Lloyd and Edith Stephenson: William Lloyd (1902–1988) Claire (“Tita”) (1903–1985),
David Lloyd (1906–2001), John Bright (1909–1988), Faith (1910–1981), and Edith Lloyd (“Yoy”) (1913–
1993). The largest portion of the papers concerns David.
David Lloyd Garrison graduated from Harvard in 1928 with a degree in fine arts. He taught for several
years and then joined J. H. Emerson Co., manufacturers of breathing equipment. He was an avid birder, and
just prior to World War II he was curator of birds at New England Museum of Natural History and the
editor of the Bulletin of New England Bird Life. He published a number of papers on birds. He relinquished his
conscientious objector status and served as a non-combatant medical technician during World War II. He
married Alice (“Pat”) O’Reilly (his superior officer) in 1945. After the war he resumed his work for the J. H.
Emerson Company. He was also an amateur artist and was active in peace activism, land conservation, and
civic and church affairs.
The papers do not go beyond Generation 5 of the Garrison family, but there are sixty Garrison
descendents in Generation 6.
vi
The Wright family
There are four generations of the Wright family represented in the Garrison family papers. Material in
these papers primarily represent Martha Coffin Wright, Lucretia Coffin Mott, Marianna Pelham Mott, and
Eliza Wright Osborne.
Martha Coffin Wright (see NAW) was the eighth child of Thomas Coffin and Anna Folger Coffin. She
was born in 1806, and in 1824, after three years of boarding school, she married army captain Peter Pelham.
They had a daughter Marianna. Pelham died in 1826. In 1829 Martha married lawyer David Wright with
whom she had six children: Eliza (1830), Matthew Tallman (1832), Ellen (1840), William Pelham (1842),
Frank (1844), and Charles (1848). In 1848 she joined with her sister Lucretia Coffin Mott, Elizabeth Cady
Stanton, Jane Hunt, and Mary Ann McClintock in planning the first woman’s rights convention at Seneca
Falls, New York. She continued to be active throughout her life in the cause for women’s rights and suffrage.
She was elected to the presidency of the National Woman Suffrage Association in 1874.
Lucretia Coffin Mott (see NAW) was the second child of Thomas Coffin and Anna Folger Coffin. Born
in 1793 on Nantucket, Massachusetts, in a Quaker household, she was educated in a Friends boarding school
near Poughkeepsie, New York, where she later taught. In 1811 she married James Mott, a fellow teacher, who
shared her causes and feminist leanings. She was an avid abolitionist and pacifist, and along with her sister
Martha Coffin Wright, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Jane Hunt, and Mary Ann McClintock, planned the first
woman’s rights convention at Seneca Falls, New York. She was president of the American Equal Rights
Association from 1866 until the organization split into the National American Woman Suffrage Association
and the American Woman Suffrage Association in 1869. The Motts had five children: Anna, Maria, Thomas,
Elizabeth, and Martha. Thomas Mott married Marianna Pelham, the eldest daughter of Martha Coffin
Wright.
Marianna Pelham was the daughter of Martha Coffin Wright by her first husband, Peter Pelham. In 1845
she married her cousin, Thomas Mott, son of Lucretia Coffin Mott and James Mott. They had three children:
Isabel (1846), Emily (1848) and Maria (1853).
Eliza was the eldest of six children of Martha Coffin and David Wright. In 1851 she married David
Munson Osborne. They had four children: Florence (1856), Emily (1853), Thomas Mott (1859), and Helen
(1884).
Stephenson Family
There are five generations of the Stephenson family represented in the Garrison Family Papers. The first
generation includes Bryant Parrot (1784–1841) and Abigail Gilbert Balkam (1784–1857) Stephenson. There is
further documentation of the subsequent generations up to the nieces and nephews of Edith Stephenson
Garrison. Edith’s papers are included with the Garrison Family, and the Stephensons are primarily
represented by Benjamin Turner and Lucinda (Luda) Grant Stephenson, the parents of Edith Alice
Stephenson.
The Collection
The Garrison Family Papers consist of 117.75 linear feet of material and contain thousands of primary
sources that document three families’ involvement in most of the major reform movements of the nineteenth
and early twentieth centuries. The collection spans the years 1694 to 2005, but the bulk of the material dates
from 1830 to 1950. Types of material include correspondence, diaries, writings, speeches, legal documents,
photographs, journal and newspaper articles, memorabilia, and a wide variety of printed sources.
vii
Included are the papers of two families who married into the Garrisons: the Wrights (Ellen Wright
married William Lloyd Garrison (1838–1909)) and the Stephensons (Edith Stephenson married William Lloyd
Garrison (1874–1964)). The Wright family includes the Coffins (Ellen’s mother was Martha Coffin Wright)
and the Mott family (Ellen’s aunt, Martha’s elder sister, was Lucretia Coffin Mott) and their descendents.
These papers trace the activities of the Garrison, Wright, and Stephenson families and their friends and
associates in England, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, and New York, among other places.
Although there is unique correspondence, biographical material, printed material, and memorabilia
related to William Lloyd Garrison (1805–1879), the largest part of the collection relates to his son William
Lloyd Garrison (1838–1909) and son’s wife, Ellen Wright Garrison, and their descendents. The influence of
patriarch William Lloyd Garrison (1805) can be seen as each generation took its place in the reform
movements of the time. These include abolition, anti-imperialism, anti-vaccination, conservation, free trade
and tariff reform, immigration reform, pacifism, race, single tax, and temperance. The papers are an especially
important source for the suffrage and women’s rights movements because they include the correspondence
of Martha Coffin Wright and Lucretia Coffin Mott with other leaders of the movement; as well as
correspondence, printed material and ephemera of Eleanor Garrison, who was an organizer for the Empire
State suffrage campaign under Carrie Chapman Catt. Major correspondents addressing the subjects of
abolition, women’s rights, and other reforms include Susan B. Anthony, Alice Stone Blackwell, Henry B.
Blackwell, Carrie Chapman Catt, Lucy Conant, Matilda Joslyn Gage, Henry George, Lucretia Coffin Mott,
Emmeline and Sylvia Pankhurst, Theodore Parker, Wendell Phillips, Parker Pillsbury, Louis Prang, Caroline
Severance, Anna Howard Shaw, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Lucy Stone, Booker T. Washington, Theodore
Dwight Weld, Frances E. Willard, and Marie Zakrzewska, among many others.
Because the Garrisons were a close-knit family, in addition to a wide view of reform, the papers offer a
look at two centuries of intimate family life, inter-generational dynamics, and social history. There is extensive
correspondence between parents and children, siblings, husbands and wives, cousins, aunts, and uncles. They
also had a wide circle of friends and associates and an extensive social network, especially in and around
Boston.
For the purposes of this project, Garrison family members have been defined as original Garrisons and
their direct descendants and anyone who married into the family. In order to differentiate between the
various William Lloyd Garrisons, they have been identified by initials and birth dates: i.e., WLG 1805, WLG
1838, WLG 1874, and WLG 1902. It is not always clear which WLG some of the material relates to. The
same holds true for the three generations that contain a Benjamin Turner Stephenson in the Stephenson
family.

SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE
Garrison Family Papers, Series 7: Memorabilia, 1694–1987 is arranged in two subseries. The first, “Family,”
contains Garrison family memorabilia which encompasses unidentified items and materials belonging to more than
one Garrison. This subseries contains undated family games, valentines and greeting cards, and material on
character analysis (1913–1950), and numerology and metaphysics (1922–1926). Of particular interest are a series of
cookbooks, household lists, accounts, recipes, and an arithmetic primer. Although many have names attached to
them, their origin is unclear. It is assumed that the cookbooks were passed down through generations because the
handwriting varies throughout. The earliest is dated 1694 and the latest 1848, although many are undated.
Subseries two, “Garrison Family” contains memorabilia for twenty-eight individual Garrisons, arranged
alphabetically. The largest group of material belongs to David Lloyd Garrison. Included are his art work (1918–
1987) (painting, drawing and art notes); birding material (1936–1984) (notebooks of birds, and bird records);
military papers (1941–1947); and travel notebooks (1947–1985). Items of William Lloyd Garrison (abbreviated as
“William Lloyd Garrison”) (1805) include an address book listing donations to fugitive slaves, an autopsy report
(1869), and documents related to the purchase of the family home at Rockledge (1853–1864). Memorabilia of
WLG (1838) and WLG (1874) contains significant amounts of collected material (verse, jokes, and quotes). There
is a handwriting analysis for WLG (1838) and a notebook of writings from an Osterville tea party (1877). Materials
for William Lloyd Garrison (1874) also include Harvard memorabilia (1892–1931), juvenilia (1883), travel notes
(1897, 1926) and a wedding guest list (1901).
Subseries I, Family, is contained on Reel 1 and the first quarter of Reel 2. The family appears to have a
sustained interest in not only hard science and technology, but also psychology, numerology and metaphysics. The
initial reel covers approximately 60 frames on character analysis and another 20 frames on numerology and
metaphysics. Of particular interest to the reader, may be the advances in technology in 1929: “This is What We
didn’t Have 10 Years Ago” (Frame 0021). Some notable advances include the advent of passenger air travel such
as transoceanic flights, advances in production of synthetic materials, efficient fluorescent lighting and movies in
color. Although not scientific, the “Garrison Hands Project of 2001” (Frame 0097) is an attempt to find family
resemblance comparing features of individual hands.
A notebook, dated 1694 on the inside front cover, contains an inventory of household goods, food recipes
and household hints, for instance “Recipe for a Cough” (Frame 0275), and “Powell’s Balsam of Aniseed” (Frame
0300). The book is not in any specific order as “Furniture Oil” (Frame 0312) is preceded by “Horse radish Sauce”
and the medicinal value of walnuts (Frame 0311). The recipes seem to have been handed down from earlier
generations of the Garrison family. Based on the handwriting, it appears the recipe book, though dated 1694, was
actually written out by a Garrison family member during the 19th century. There are a number of recipes dated in
the 1800s with the latest being 1848. Even though many of the entries are undated, as the researchers peruse
through the pages, they will be able to discern the time period by the contents of the recipes.
As a side-note to Reel 1, lest one forget that the Garrisons are abolitionists, WLG (1805) writes to his son in
praise of certain parts of Kansas defying the “wicked Fugitive Slave Law” (Frame 0179).
The first 200 frames of Reel 2 continue to cover the household, especially recipes. Of particular note are the
recipe books of Mary Ashby Stettam (Frame 0055), Mrs. Macdonald—cook, Mrs. Hewitt—baker (Frame 0135)
and Mrs. Charles Smith (Frame 0188). Mary Ashby Stettam has particular affinity for desserts and Indian recipes
including a curry powder recipe. Mrs. Macdonald and Mrs. Hewitt have recipes for meats, vegetables, soup and
cake, desserts and preserve and an occasional household hint. Mrs. Charles Smith has instructions for first aid,
cosmetics and other household hints.
Subseries II, “Garrison Family” memorabilia begins with Edith “Yoy” Garrison (later Bliss) and her school
notes and documents. Her lessons in poetry include William Yeats, Emily Dickinson, Lord Byron and Robert
Frost. Other documents belonging to Edith Garrison include college literature and her marriage announcement to
her first husband, Dean Wheatley.
ix
Other members of the Garrison family compiled in Reel 2 are Claire Garrison Emerson, David Lloyd
Garrison and his wife Alice O’Reilly Garrison, and Agnes Garrison, sister of Edith, Claire, and David’s father.
Among Agnes’s memorabilia includes an autograph book with signatures of prominent individuals including
Oliver Wendell Holmes (Frame 0457) and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (Frame 0459).
Reels 3 through 5 cover David Lloyd Garrison’s life. Researchers will discover his keen interest in art, flowers
and especially birds. His aviary hobbies are extensive; he has birding records, bird photo books, bird paintings, bird
stamps and more. (Reels 3 and 4). Other memorabilia in this collection include his academic life, military records
and travels. As a public relations officer in a military hospital he wrote communiqués regarding promotions and
commendations, an Easter party for Polish refugee children, a family reunion of two brothers at the hospital, and a
somber Armistice Day celebration.
Reel 5 contains David Lloyd Garrison’s memorabilia as a civilian, including his travel and bird observation
diaries (Frame 0328, 0488) and official documents. Among his travel documents there is an automotive diary with
detailed mileage and gas consumption (Frame 0463), and a travel diary written during a trip to Europe from 1966
(Frame 0476). A sample entry from July 25 reads, “The Villa Miani [Lake Como] was a real find. The town strings
along the lake with vineyards and small houses up the steep hillsides–a sight!” (Frame 0500).
Also included in this reel are other travel diaries, both foreign and domestic. The trip to England and Ireland
are covered in a diary from 1973 (Frame 0571) and travels across the United States and parts of Canada from 1974
through 1985 are detailed in a diary (Frame 0601).
The final section of David Lloyd Garrison’s memorabilia contains his miscellaneous papers. Among these are
papers from his academic life, including what appears to be an excerpt from a school yearbook (Frame 0700), and
a document on gun control (Frame 0714).
Reels 6 and the beginning of 7 are memorabilia of mostly the third generation of Garrisons and their spouses.
Edith Stephenson Garrison, the mother of Edith, Clair, and David, provides the majority of items in reel 6,
including her travel diary, her education, wedding gifts, address and phone book. A list of Chinese dynasties is also
included in her documents (Frame 0347).
Reels 7 through 9 contain memorabilia of three William Lloyd Garrisons, WLG (1805), WLG (1838) and
WLG (1874). Included in the documents is a hand-written autopsy report of WLG (1805) (Reel 7, Frame 0217),
and commemorative plaque in his honor (Reel 7, Frame 0276). WLG (1838) collected poetry throughout his life
and many poems are included in his papers. Among his favorites were Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Alfred, Lord
Tennyson, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. The reader will also find personal
documents such as life insurance policies, and notes on his entrance into the wool business (Frame 0599).
The memorabilia of WLG (1874) is covered in the second half of reel 7 through the beginning of reel 9. His
collected material consists of jokes, quotations and addresses, including works of Helen Keller and the Gettysburg
Address. Reels 8 and 9 cover his academic years, travels, and family life (Reel 9, Frame 0083). WLG (1874), who
was the third generation of William Lloyd Garrison, refers to himself as William Lloyd Garrison Jr. in many of his
later documents, while the fourth William Lloyd Garrison, WLG (1902) went by William Lloyd Garrison III, as
evidenced by his passport (Reel 9, Frame 0367)
Completing the series is the memorabilia of WLG (1902), his daughter with Edith Stephenson Garrison, Faith
Garrison Harwood, and his cousins, Katherine Garrison Norton, Oswald Garrison Villard and Oswald Garrison
Villard, Jr. Of particular interest are papers on blindness (Frame 0286).
Series 7, Garrison Family Papers contain documents and memorabilia of four generations of the Garrison
Family. The materials created and collected by the Garrisons offer the researcher great insight into a fascinating

T
his collection of Garrison Family Papers, Series 7: Memorabilia, 1694–1987 is part of a
twelve-part microfilm series based on the Garrison Family Papers at Smith College.
The collected materials and writings of more than thirty members of this
fascinating family of activists and thinkers are included in this microfilm edition.
The memorabilia is comprised of a wide variety of material including speeches and writings,
household accounts and recipes, paintings, drawings, travel notebooks, school documents,
personal documents such as passports, address books, poetry, and compilations of
quotations. The family’s reform activities are woven through the documents. On Reel 1,
Frame 0179, for example, William Lloyd Garrison (1805) writes to his son in praise of
certain areas of Kansas defying the “wicked Fugitive Slave Law.” Agnes Garrison’s
memorabilia includes an autograph book with signatures of prominent individuals including
Wendell Phillips, an ardent abolitionist and compatriot of her grandfather William Lloyd
Garrison (1805) (Reel 2, Frame 0456, seen below).
The Garrison Family Papers, with detailed documentation on five generations of an
extraordinary American family, offer exciting research opportunities in American political
history and important social movements like women’s rights, abolition, tax reform, free trade
and tariff reform, immigration reform, and pacifism.
