HARRIET GOODHUE HOSMER, 1830-1908
The Crow family became prominent in the history of St. Louis, Missouri, when the Honorable Wayman Crow (1808-1885) brought his family there from Kentucky in 1835. Civic leader, state senator, and business tycoon, Wayman Crow was the founder of Washington University and later of its art museum. Wayman Crow married Isabella B. Conn (1814-1892); among their children were Cornelia (Crow) Carr, Emma (Crow) Carr, Mary (Crow) Emmons, and Wayman Crow, Jr.
In the years 1847-1851 Cornelia Crow (1833-1922) attended Elizabeth Sedgwick's seminary in Lenox, Massachusetts. Here she met and befriended Harriet Goodhue Hosmer, who was later to become one of America's most distinguished woman sculptors. Wayman Crow became Harriet Goodhue Hosmer's first benefactor and life-long patron, managing her financial matters until his death.
