| Manuscript Collection | Save | | 2 | Title: | Severance Family Papers, Series II
| | | | Creator: | Severance Family | | | | Dates: | 1826-1989 | | | | Abstract: | The Severance family was a prominent Cleveland, Ohio, family known for its philanthropic activities. Solon Severance, a Cleveland banker, was the son of Solomon Severance and Mary Helen Long, and a brother of Louis Severance. He was also a descendent of John Walworth, an early settler of Cleveland who was a civil engineer and was appointed in 1806 as the Custom Collector for the District of Erie. Solon's wife, Emily Allen, was the daughter of Dr. Dudley Allen, and the sister of prominent surgeon Dudley P. Allen. Solon and Emily's daughter, Julia Severance Millikin, was the wife of Benjamin Millikin, a noted Cleveland opthalmologist. Julia's children included Helen Millikin Nash and Severance, Marianne, Dudley, and Louise Millikin. The collection consists of historical and biographical data on various family members; diaries and travel journals, especially of Julia Severance Millikin and her mother, Emily Allen Severance; correspondence, especially between Julia and her mother, Emily Severance; wills, genealogical notes, deeds, notices of events, and newspaper clippings. Among the correspondence are numerous letters from Julia's friends from Wells College. The collection also includes a certificate appointing John Walworth collector for the district of Erie, 1806, and a journal kept by Dudley Allen detailing early medical practice in the area. There is also material on author Samuel L. Clemens (Mark Twain) and his voyage around the world, which included Solon and Emily Severance, and became the basis of his novel "The Innocents Abroad". | | | | Call #: | MS 4558 | | | | Extent: | 4.00 linear feet (4 containers) | | | | Subjects: | Severance family. | Allen family. | Long family. | Millikin family. | Nash family. | Severance, Solon Lewis, 1834-1915. | Allen, Peter, 1787-1864. | Allen, Dudley Peter, 1852-1915 | Long, David, 1787-1851. | Long, Juliana Walworth, 1794-1866. | Millikin, Benjamin L., 1851-1916. | Severance, Mary Helen, 1816-1902. | Severance, John Long, 1863-1936. | Walworth, John, 1765-1812. | Millikin, Julia Severance, 1862-1950. | Allen, Dudley, 1814-1898. | Nash, Helen Millikin, 1893-1990. | Prentiss, Elisabeth Severance, 1865-1944. | Severance, Emily Allen, 1840-1921. | Twain, Mark, 1835-1910 | Wells College. | Women -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Women college graduates -- Correspondence. | Medicine -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Philanthropists -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Charities -- Ohio -- Cleveland. | Voyages and travels. | Voyages around the world. | Cleveland (Ohio) -- History -- 19th century. | Cleveland (Ohio) -- Genealogy.
