Description
This
brief
biographical
sketch
summarizes
Frances
L
.
Goodrich's
early
work
in the
mountains
of
North
Carolina
. The
sketch
gives
basic
biographical
data
about
Goodrich's
life
prior
to
coming
to the
western
North
Carolina
mountains
in the
1890s
as a
part
of
home
missions
work
for the
Presbyterian
Church
.
It
briefly
describes
her
work
in the
Brittain's
Cove
community
in
Buncombe
County
, but
gives
more
information
about
her
administration
of the
mission
station
in the
Laurel
and
Allanstand
communities
of
Madison
County
, and
about
the
creation
of the
Allanstand
Cottage
Industries
.
While
the
author
of this
biographical
sketch
is
unknown
,
it
was
apparently
drafted
for
Goodrich's
nomination
by the
Asheville
Civitan
Club
as a
candidate
for the
National
Contest
of the
Exposition
of
Women's
Arts
and
Industries
,
possibly
during
the
1920s
or
1930s
. The
sketch
appears
to be
incomplete
.
