Mary Catherine Dixwell Wigglesworth. Individuals represented include Henrietta
May Goddard Wigglesworth; Epes Sargent Dixwell; George Wigglesworth; and Norton

belonged to Mary Catherine Dixwell Wigglesworth and have her comments and
recollections about them inscribed on the verso of the images. They were turned
over to Ruth Wigglesworth Whitney in Sept. 1966.
