PROVENANCE: Mary Agnes Pomeroy Bartlett (1841-1909) was the wife of Major General William Francis Bartlett (1840 â" 1876) was a general in the Union Army during the American Civil War, thereafter he became an executive in the iron industry in Massachusetts. Bartlett interupted his studies at Harvard College to enlist as a private serving with the Union Army during the Civil War.

By the end of the war, he had risen to the grade of brigadier general, U.S. Volunteers and was awarded the honorary grade of brevet major general, U.S. Volunteers. He successively commanded two regiments, a brigade and a division. Over the course of the war, he was wounded four times. Alice Goodrich White Burbank (1848-1930) was the wife of Brigadier General James Brattle Burbank, a veteran of both the Civil War and the Spanish-American War. During the American Civil War, Burbank began his military service as First Lieutenant in the 20th Connecticut Volunteer Infantry in November 1862 and was promoted to Brevet Major by March 1863 for his gallant conduct in the battle of Chancellorsville, Virginia. He then resigned from the Volunteers and enlisted in the U.S. Army serving in the 3rd U. S. Artillery for the remainder of the War.
