I am interested in info about Alice Hill Chittenden, daughter of Simeon
Chittenden & Mary Hill, b. 1869.. While I have no blood connection she would have
been my godmother & I have the middle name of Alice, after her.
My father, while at Yale 1937-41, was Miss Chittenden's assistant when she
was in Guilford and New York. Only a few years ago, did I learn about her
anti-suffragist activity as President of the New York State Association Opposed
to Woman Suffrage. There are several very good articles about her and documents
online. My father was astounded that anti-suffragism was part of her past
because she was so active politically. I believe she became president of the
Womens' National Republican Club & was very involved with the National Red
Cross.
I know she had a sister who lived in New Jersey? and several other siblings.
I have several postcards her sister sent to Dad in the mid 1940's. I have
records of her family history and know about Gov. Chittenden.
Miss Chittenden has become much more intriguing to me in the past few years.
I will be pleased if anyone has anything more to offer.
(I realize this is not my genealogy though I am active on other Rootsweb
lists related to my own families.)
Thanks !

Tom,My name is Graeme John Chittenden, 8th cousin 4 x removed of William Chittenden and Mary Dunster. Our tree has been traced back from South Africa and Australia back to England and we continue with the research. I am intrigued to see that you have information on the family back to Denmark. I would be happy to share our tree with you and would love to get any information on our earlier English roots and the information back to Denmark. I have three Coats-of-Arms, one of which is for the Darlington Chittenden, another one is I believe William of Guilford, the last one we got in South Africa but are not sure it is authentic. My E-mail address is rosac(a)iafrica.com. (Graeme)
