"Our Bible Class and the Good that Came of It,"Rebecca, or Woman's Secret,"His Marriage Vow,"Belle and the Boys,"letters from a Chimney Corner,"A Woman's Philosophy of Love." She has also written many magazine articles, and published pamphlets opposing woman suffrage. She was one of the original founders of the Association for the Advancement of Women, and is president of the Illinois Association Opposed to the Extension of Suffrage to Women. She has taken a deep interest in the CORBIN Genealogy, and it is she who had the gravestones of our first ancestors at Woodstock renovated and reset."

Calvin R. CORBIN spent his youth in Oxford and Thompson; went west in 1855, and was engaged in the survey of the route for the Chicago & Northwestern Railway. In 1857, he settled in Chicago, where he became a successful Merchant and a prominent citizen. Address, 597 Dearborn Ave., Chicago, Ill."

Doan, b. Thompson; was the pioneer of Pure Food laws; lived at 59 Dearborn Ave.; after his death his firm CORBIN, Sons & Co. became CORBIN & Co. He saw Emperor William and the Pope in the interest of anti-suffrage."

My great-great grandmother, Caroline Fairfield CORBIN, commissioned the biography by Mr. Lawson that you reference and also erected the stones at the cemeteries in Woodstock and Dudley, MA. I am a direct descendant of Clement through Calvin CORBIN whose picture is featured in the Lawson biography. I would like to extend the genealogy back in time a few generations to Fordington, Dorset, England. Unfortunately, the church records, ship records, and other records I’ve found so far do not help me pinpoint Clement, his siblings or his parents, John and Margaret.
