== MabelHarpoot EvelynFemale ElliottSeminary ==
 
Hi Penny, I've just started on an article about the [[Harpoot Female Seminary]], founded by Susan Anna Brookings Wheeler. I'm not sure I can scrape together enough to start her biography, but I did come across that she had been a [https://books.google.com/books?id=TVM4AAAAYAAJ&pg=PA147 non-graduate student at Mount Holyoke College]. I tried finding a photo of her via Mount Holyoke's website but no success. I seem to recall that you have access to some historical yearbooks, particularly the Seven Sisters, so I was wondering if maybe you have better/different access and can locate a school photo of her? No worries if you're busy with other things; the seminary article will be fine without it. Thanks! -- [[User:Rosiestep|Rosiestep]] ([[User talk:Rosiestep|talk]]) 17:44, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
I did some additions to the [[Mabel Evelyn Elliott]] page. What an interesting person. She lived in West Palm Beach which is about 8 miles from me. [[User:Flahistory|Flahistory]] ([[User talk:Flahistory|talk]]) 16:25, 24 September 2024 (UTC)
