Jane Addams. Courtesy of the Library of Congress (LC-USZ62-95722). Addams, Jane (6 Sept. 1860-21 May 1935) , social reformer and peace activist, was the daughter of John Huy Addams, a businessman and Republican politician, and Sarah Weber. Born on the eve of the Civil War in the small farming community of Cedarville, just outside Freeport, in northern Illinois, she was the youngest of five children, four of whom were girls. Her mother died during pregnancy when Jane was two years old. The Addams family was the wealthiest, most respected family in the community. Jane's father owned the local grain mill, was president of the Second National Bank of Freeport, had interests in a local railroad and a local insurance company, taught Sunday School, and was active in local Bible societies. A founding member of the Republican party and supporter of Abraham Lincoln , he was elected to the Illinois State Senate as a Republican in 1854 and served in that capacity until 1870. In 1868 John Addams married Anna Haldeman, a widow with two sons and pretensions to gentility. Under her parents' tutelage, Jane Addams acquired liberal principles regarding individual rights and republican principles regarding community responsibility, and she grew up believing that both Christian ethics and the arts were key civilizing agents. Ellen Gates Starr , a former Rockford student, traveled extensively in Europe, and gradually came to understand the tension women faced between what she would later call the "family claim" and the "social claim."

T-Z Subjects: A-E F-L M-Z Addams, Jane (1860-1935) page: American reformer, social worker, founder of the Hull House Settlement in Chicago, and peace activist, Jane Addams received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1931. Her involvement in same-sex relationships has consistently been hidden or minimized by official biographers. As a cultural feminist, Addams argued that the dominant male values at the turn of the twentieth century contributed to such tragic circumstances as poverty, urban blight, and war. It was therefore, she believed, the duty of women, with their superior social and emotional awareness, to propose alternative models of living. Sponsor Message. Addams's vision of a humane, communitarian society in which justice, freedom, mutual support, and individual achievement are the preeminent values is her enduring legacy. Addams was born into a well-off and locally influential family in Cedarville, Illinois, on September 6, 1860. Her mother died when she was only two years old, and she suffered from tuberculosis of the spine. When she was eight, her father married a cultured but domineering woman who would attempt to instill traditional values into her independent-minded stepdaughter.

T-Z Subjects: A-E F-L M-Z Addams, Jane (1860-1935) page: She had at least two long-term same-sex relationships, which might best be described in the language of the day as "romantic friendships" or " Boston marriages ": first with Ellen Starr, who persuaded Addams to found Hull House; and then with Mary Rozet Smith, a wealthy, college-educated young woman who worked at and helped support Hull House. The latter relationship began in the early 1900s and lasted until Smith's death in 1934. Its intensity is detailed by the letters and poems that the two women wrote to each other. Sponsor Message. Although Addams and Smith lived at a time when lesbian identity was still being shaped, they clearly understood themselves as forming a married couple. Addams wrote to Smith during a period of separation: "You must know, dear, how I long for you all the time, and especially during the last three weeks. There is reason in the habit of married folks keeping together." Addams was honored for her work for world peace at the twentieth anniversary congress of the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom in May 1935. Soon after the congress, on May 21, 1935, she died, aged 74. Her passing was mourned throughout the world, but especially by the poor of Chicago.

Jane Addams - (1860 - 1935) Cedarville By Brian Lewandowski and Sarina Hettenhausen Belleville Township High School East in Belleville, Illinois I. Upbringing, Education, and Professional Life (Laura) Jane Addams was born in Cedarville, Illinois as the eighth of nine children. Her parents, John and Sarah, moved to Illinois from Pennsylvania. Her father was a prosperous miller and also served sixteen years in the U.S. Senate. Later an officer in the Civil War, he also boasted a friendship with one of this country's greatest leaders, Abraham Lincoln. Jane Addams was born with a congenital spinal defect, which prevented her from being very active as a child. At the age of two, her mother died and her father remarried five years later. Her stepmother, Anna H. Haldeman, enrolled Addams in the Rockford (Illinois) Female Seminary at the age of seventeen. After graduating as valedictorian, she attended the Women's Medical College of Pennsylvania in 1881. Unfortunately, she was forced to drop out a few months later due to poor health. At the age of twenty-seven, Addams began her second tour of Europe with her friend Ellen Gates Starr. During her travels, she visited a settlement house in London's Industrial District known as Toynbee Hall, which catered to the needs of the local poor. Enthralled at the concept of such an establishment, she decided to begin such a house in the United States.

Other great links Childhood: On September 6, 1860 Laura Jane Addams was born to Sarah Weber Addams and John Addams, the same year in which Abraham Lincoln ran for president (1971, ix). It has been noted that Jane's father and Lincoln were such good friends letters would come addressed to Addams as "My Dear Double D'-'ed Addams" (http:nobel.sdsc.edu/laureates/peace-1931-1-bio.html). She became very close to her father, as she was his last link to Sarah, and became extremely fond of him as he was of her. She began to mimic everything he had done from the scarring of her hands that came with milling to reading every book in the village library (1971). Jane had "half expected and fully hoped to grow up to be her father" (1971, 15). Jane later states that her father was the one who incorporated her into "the moral concerns of life" (1971, 9). Jane recalls in her book, Twenty Years at Hull House , which has been seen as autobiographical, her first encounter with poverty. She remembered asking her father why people lived in awful little houses so close together. Then replied, she would have a large house in the middle of all the terrible small ones (1910).

Addams, Jane (Laura) Jane Addams (September 6, 1860-May 21, 1935) won worldwide recognition in the first third of the twentieth century as a pioneer social worker in America, as a feminist, and as an internationalist. She was born in Cedarville, Illinois, the eighth of nine children. Her father was a prosperous miller and local political leader who served for sixteen years as a state senator and fought as an officer in the Civil War; he was a friend of Abraham Lincoln whose letters to him began «My Dear Double D-'ed Addams». Because of a congenital spinal defect, Jane was not physically vigorous when young nor truly robust even later in life, but she became a graceful attractive woman after her spinal difficulty was remedied by surgery. Miss Addams and Miss Starr made speeches about the needs of the neighborhood, raised money, convinced young women of well-to-do families to help, took care of children, nursed the sick, listened to outpourings from troubled people. By its second year of existence, Hull-House was host to two thousand people every week. There were kindergarten classes in the morning, club meetings for older children in the afternoon, and for adults in the evening more clubs or courses in what became virtually a night school. The first facility added to Hull-House was an art gallery, the second a public kitchen; then came a coffee house, a gymnasium, a swimming pool, a cooperative boarding club for girls, a book bindery, an art studio, a music school, a drama group, a circulating library, an employment bureau, a labor museum.

Retrieved on August 12, 2002, from http://www2.pfeiffer.edu/~lridener/DSS/INDEX.HTML#addams American Roots Jane Addams was a country girl who reformed the big city. A native of rural Illinois in nineteenth- century mid-America, she went to booming, roaring Chicago, forged her lifework amid teeming streets and squalid tenements, and permanently changed the metropolis of her state. Only a genius could have done this. Jane Addams was a genius who, luckily, arrived on the scene at just the right moment to play her role in history. Between her birth in 1860 and her establishment of Hull-House in 1889, the United States, rising from the disaster of the Civil War, became a nation less and less agrarian, more and more urban. And Jane Addams imaginatively and energetically utilized the new urban environment, with its unsolved problems, to carry out the mission to which she dedicated herself. That mission, based on individual effort, mutual help, peaceful reform, and faith in progress, placed her squarely in the American traditionappropriately, for she had deep American roots. Her parents, John Huy Addams and Sarah (Weber) Addams, were originally from Pennsylvania, where their ancestors had lived since Colonial times. In 1681, William Penn had granted a tract of land in his new colony to an Englishman named Robert Adams, who crossed the Atlantic and became one of the earliest Pennsylvanians. He was joined by his brother Walter, progenitor of the line that produced Jane Addams. Walter's son Isaac (Jane's great-grandfather) seems to have been the first "Addams," adding the extra "d" apparently to avoid confusion with a relative of the same name. Isaac's son was Samuel Addams, and
