Frances Sheldon Bolton was born in New Haven, Conn., on September 22, 1863, the daughter of Judge Joseph Sheldon and Abigail Burrill Barker. A part of her early life was spent in England and Switzerland, and later in Syracuse, N.Y. At the age of twenty she married James Bolton and enjoyed a happy married life for over fifty years. Their first child, Clarence Havelock Bolton, was born seven years after their marriage, and two years later a second son was born, Joseph Sheldon Gerry Bolton. A few years later a daughter Dorothea, brightened their lives. Several years later another daughter, Frances, was born while her mother was president of the Connecticut Congress of Mothers. In 1898, Mrs. Bolton published one of the first books on child care, entitled: BABY. She had first thought of this subject when she was a trained nurse at Pittsfield Maternity Hospital, Massachusetts, in 1883. There she had charge of newborn babies and believed there was nothing more important that giving them a sense of security and love from birth. With her own beliefs already firmly set in the path of child welfare, Mrs. Bolton welcomed the news that a National Congress of Mothers was to be formed in Washington, D.C., February 17, 1897. She printed the call to the meeting in her Mothers Journal and was Connecticut's sole representative at the meeting. Mrs. Bolton was appointed "organizer" for the Connecticut Congress of Mothers by Mrs. Alice McClellan Birney, first national President. RAREA1898BOPZ 02/25 - HK2315.…
