Very family.
Frances Eliza Very (1821-1895) and Lydia Louisa Ann Very (1823-1901) were the daughters of Captain Jones and Lydia (Very) Very, of Salem, Mass. Their brother, Jones Very (1813-1880) was a controversial poet, author, and religious/spiritual figure among the Transcendentalists. The Very sisters lived with Jones and another brother, Washington (1815-1853), in Salem. They were known as slightly eccentric, ardently humanitarian, and nature-loving women.
