Mother: Mary Potts NEALE |
In 1890 Caroline Scott Harrison lent her prestige as First Lady to the founding of the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution. She served as its first President General. She took a special interest in the history of the White House, and the mature dignity with which she carried out her duties may overshadow the fun-loving nature that had charmed "Ben" Harrison when they met as teenagers.
Born at Oxford, Ohio, in 1832, "Carrie" was the second daughter of Mary Potts Neal and the Reverend Dr. John W. Scott, a Presbyterian minister and founder of the Oxford Female Institute. As her father's pupil--brown-haired, petite, witty--she infatuated the reserved young Ben, then an
honor student at Miami University; they were engaged before his graduation and married in 1853. [Information from the White House website ]
She died of tuberculosis at the White House in October 1892, and after services in the East Room was buried from her own church in Indianapolis. [S499]
