My Great Grandmother, Sarah Hammond was born in 1851 in Herkimer County, New York. Sarah was an unusual woman for her time in that she possessed not only a deep sense of civic pride, but also a strong love of the arts. In 1873 she helped organize the Reading Circle “to promote the study of literature and social betterment.” In addition to her love of books, she was a student of art and an artist of high talent.
