| 説明 | Posed in her wedding dress, on her silver wedding anniversary. Photo discovered in Grand Rapids in 2011 by Patrick McCauley of Ann Arbor, who writes that Amy was the wife of Charles H. Richmond, and the photo was taken in Ann Arbor on her silver wedding anniversary (1881) in the same dress she wore at her wedding in 1856. This was found in the Grand Rapids Public Library's Richmond Family Papers, which also include diaries from Lorraine Richmond, wife of William Almy Richmond, the older brother of Almy Lund and Charles H. Richmond. Much of the diary was written in 1858, when William Richmond and his wife Lorraine were living in New York City. Charles H. and Amy Howland Richmond were there during much of 1858, until Jonathan Lund died (an event mentioned in the diary), which is when they first moved to Ann Arbor. The Richmonds kept very distinguished company, including a house call made to Henry Ward Beecher, and were there with President Buchanan when the first telegraph message via the new Atlantic Cable was received from Queen Victoria. "They went to many lectures by famous orators of the day, like Henry Ward Beecher, Lyman Beecher and anti-slavery crusader, Rev. George B. Cheever. Harriet Beecher Stowe is also mentioned, which is weird, because the Richmonds were all Democrats!" |
