Families that have been influential in American life and culture are often recognizable by their signature names. The Beecher family is an example of one such family whose deep religious convictions and social conscience spanned the nineteenth century and made them prominent historical figures whose impact on religion, education, abolition, reform movements, literature and public life were exceptional. This online exhibit is based on an exhibit at the William and Anita Newman Library that was curated by Professor Sandra Roff, Archivist/Reference Librarian. The web site offers short biographical sketches of members of the Beecher family together with photographs and illustrations of that time.
