Provisional Notes	Born in Litchfield, Connecticut (14-06-1811) Father was preacher Lyman Beecher. Married to Calvin Ellis Stowe (1836). 7 children, including twin daughters. Lost son Samuel Charles after 18 months. One of the first editors of Hearth and Home (weekly magazine published 1868-1875). Mark Twain, in his autobiography, recalled about Stowe's later life: "Her mind had decayed, and she was a pathetic figure." The Washington Post reported in 1888 that Stowe started "writing Uncle Tom's Cabin over again. She imagined that she was engaged in the original composition, and for several hours every day she industriously used pen and paper, inscribing passages of the book almost exactly word for word." -- See Wikipedia.
