1Title:  Charlotte Garland Thompson Family Papers     
 Creator:  Charlotte Garland Thompson Family 
 Dates:  1838-2008 
 Abstract:  Lottie Garland Thompson (1842-1933) was born in Hamilton, Ohio, the daughter of Timothy and Mary Garland. Soon after her birth, her family moved to Ann Arbor, Michigan. Lottie became a school teacher in various Michigan cities. Her younger sister, Sophie, was also a teacher until her commitment to Eastern Michigan Asylum in 1878. Lottie moved back to the family farm in Norwalk, Ohio, with her husband and daughter in 1898. Tensions between Lottie and her husband led to the couple's separation and eventual divorce. Lottie moved in with her daughter, Orcie May, where she lived until her death in 1933. The collection consists of biographies, certificates, correspondence, diaries, essays, funeral books, genealogies, legal documents, newspaper clippings, programs, and report cards.
