New Hampshire Native Daughter; The Early Life of Mary Baker Eddy, 1821-1866

New Hampshire Native Daughter, The Early Life of Mary Baker Eddy: 1821-1866, was the inspiration of William Treadwell, and while written decades ago, was not published until the year of his passing in 2024.

This volume educates the reader with the momentous education and abilities of Mary Baker (later Mary Baker Eddy, Founder of the Christian Science denomination), in the first half of her life, from birth through her first marriage to George Glover, her widowhood, and subsequent marriage to Dr. Daniel Patterson.

While there have been numerous biographies of this grand woman, few devote such personal and touching insights into her early life, as this volume shares with the reader. From girlhood one can see how Mary Baker is set apart through her intrinsic spiritual sense and remarkable educational abilities. One senses a great appreciation of the historical scope of her life.

Bill, and his wife Julie, worked extensively with the Director of the New Hampshire Historical Society in acquiring an exacting and true-to-life history of one of the world’s greatest of women, Mary Baker Eddy. Virtually all of the historical quotes in this book have their genesis in this in-depth working relationship with the New Hamshpire Historical Society.

This poignant insight into the early life of Mary Baker will inspire and resonate with the most spiritually-minded reader as well as the scholar seeking further insights into her grand life, embracing many trials as well as triumphs in her journey Spirit-ward.
