Lucy E. Anthony

[edit]

Can anyone explain Anna H. Shaw's relationship to Lucy E. Anthony? Were they lovers for 30 years? I noticed an obituary article from the Harrisburg Telegraph, (Harrisburg, PA), Jul 3, 1919, Page 7 that seemed to state they were partners beyond in work. Lucy was at her bedside at her death. Anyone know more about this? Jooojay (talk) 06:29, 22 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It was quite common for women with means to have ladies in waiting and companions of a non-romantic nature. No sourcing exists to say she was anything but that. We will never know! Missvain (talk) 07:14, 8 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Mariana Thompson Folsom -- is this the Mariana Thompson mentioned in the article?

[edit]

The article mentions Rev. Mariana Thompson. Is this the same person that is the subject of the Wikipedia article Mariana Thompson Folsom? If this can be confirmed, there should be a wikilink in this article, linking it to that article.

Yes, it is the same person, and I have added the link and some additional info on their encounter. PMCH2 (talk) 13:44, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
