Local historian; b. 21 Mar. 1825 in Bridgewater, Mass. Daughter of Rev. Richard Manning Hodges, minister of the First Congregational Church of Bridgewater from 1821 to 1833. Her mother was Elizabeth Quincy Donnison, daughter of William Donnison, Judge of Common Pleas, Adjutant General, and aide to Governor Hancock. In 1836 the family moved to Cambridge and purchased a house on the corner of Waterhouse and Garden streets. Sarah Swan attended a school in Cambridge and took private lessons from Margaret Fuller. She married Rev. Joshua Swan on 16 Apr. 1851 and went to live in Kennebunk, Me., where Swan was an ordained minister of the First Congregational Church. During the Civil War she joined the local Soldier's Aid Society and, in 1863, became the local manager for the U.S. Sanitary Commission, a national organization that in part served to provide clothing and foodstuffs to Union soldiers at the front. In 1869, failing health forced Swan to resign his position, and the family moved to Cambridge and bought a house at 6 Berkeley St. Sarah Swan was a charter member of the Cambridge Historical Society, and arranged the records of her family and wrote an account of her mother's old home in Boston, at the corner of Washington and Winter streets. She was active in the First Church, Cambridge Hospital, and the Home for the Aged. She died at home (167 Brattle St.), on 17 Oct. 1910.

Title: Hodges-Swan family papers, 1698-1909 (bulk 1845-1909)

The bulk of the Swan Family Papers contains a series of diaries kept by Sarah Hodges Swan, spanning the years 1840-1909 (non-inclusive) and written during her time in both Cambridge, Massachusetts and Kennebunk, Maine. Many pages have been removed from the earlier diaries, presumably by Sarah Swan herself since notes in the margins of pages for other days (in the same hand) attempt to provide brief descriptions of those pages missing. Photographs, news clippings, and pressed plants and flowers are found throughout the series, as well as received correspondence that has been tipped into the diaries themselves. All loose ephemera have been removed, the original location noted, and placed in folders following the appropriate diary. The last two volumes at the end of the series contain a sort of autobiographical sketch beginning in 1793, thirty-two years before her birth, and ending in 1852, just after her marriage to Joshua Swan. Land records dating from 1698 to 1829, an assortment of contemporary notes and clippings, transcripts of the correspondence of Edmund Quincy (1756-1783), various seventeenth-century accounts and ephemera, and a bound copy of Swan's article The Story of an Old House and the People who Lived in it comprise Series III. It appears that many of these documents, (e.g. land records and accounts) had been passed down through the family and were used by Swan in performing research for her published article. The balance of these was compiled by Sarah Hodges Swan for the same purpose. The land records document the ownership of land by Sarah Swan's ancestors, most relating to the ownership of her mother's home in Boston at the corner of Washington and Winters Streets. A few document land ownership in Rhode Island and New York during this period. Two additional series complete the collection. Series IV consists of the inventories and/or wills of Richard M. Hodges and Charles Tower. One daguerreotype of Elizabeth Quincy Donnison Hodges in a black leather case, and a series of tintypes identified only as having been sent to "The Misses Bumstead," one belonging to Elizabeth Bolles, comprise Series V. All series are arranged chronologically. Wallets that formerly contained land records and other eighteenth through early nineteenth century documents are housed in Box 4.
