  • [S1616] Abbot/Bowditch Family Letters. The Abbot/Bowditch Family Letters were written by friends and family members of Elizabeth Blanchard Abbot between about 1840 and 1920. Elizabeth was born in Beverly, Massachusetts, in 1821, and moved from there to her husband Joseph Henry Bowditch's home in North Carolina immediately after their marriage in 1845. Most of the letters were written to Elizabeth in North Carolina, but some were written by Elizabeth herself, and others were written between other family members and friends. They are generally complete and in good to very good condition, although some are torn or have parts missing. A few are charred at folded edges, possibly from a fire that destroyed Elizabeth and Joseph's house in 1880. Some include "cross writing," the practice of turning the page 90 degrees and continuing a letter by overwriting previously written text in order to save weight and/or paper. They are part of the family history material saved by Elizabeth's daughter Georgiana Bowditch, then passed down successively to Georgiana's niece Blanche (Bowditch) (Hamilton) Marsh, to Blanche's cousin Frederick Tryon Bowditch, and to Fred's son David Nathanial Bowditch. They are currently (2016) in the possession of Dave's daughter Jane Ellen Bowditch and her husband Charles Towne.
