Alice Morse Earle
Alice Morse Earle (April 27, 1851February 16, 1911) was an American historian and writer from Worcester, Massachusetts.She was christened Mary Alice by her parents Edwin Morse and Abby Mason Clary. On April 15, 1874, she married Henry Earle of New York City with whom she had four children, including the botanical illustrator Alice Clary Earle Hyde. She changed her name from Mary Alice Morse to Alice Morse Earle. Her writings, beginning in 1890, focused on daily colonial life rather than grand events, and thus are invaluable for modern US social historians. She wrote a number of books on colonial America (and especially the New England region) such as ''Home Life In Colonial Days'', ''Old Time Gardens'', ''Costume of Colonial Times'', and ''Curious Punishments of Bygone Days''.
She was a passenger aboard the RMS ''Republic'' when, while in a dense fog, that ship collided with the SS ''Florida''. During the transfer of passengers, Alice fell into the water. Her near drowning in 1909 off the coast of Nantucket during this abortive trip to Egypt weakened her health sufficiently that she died two years later, in Hempstead, Long Island.
