Leah Forbes Washburn, who was born in
Massachusetts in 172G and died in 17s9
Another interesting object is a framed
section Of leaded-glass. containing
crest relating to the Washburn family
in England. This was once part of
window in st. Peters Church, Benge-
worth, Evesham, England. which was
demolished in 1872. From England there
is also another relic, a masonry tile Sc
cured from the floor of the Evesham Alb
hey during the early part of the nine
teenth century and framed for preserva-
ton. This abbey was very old, having
been built in the reign of Henry VIII
On this tile there is a design of six
doves and three flowers. the coat-of-arms
of the Washbourne family of Wichen-
ford, England. a branch of the Wash
burns.
In a large frame there is series of
photographs of other members of the
Washburn family. including Mrs. Mar
tina b. Washburn, her husband, Israel
Washburn, and their ten children. nearly
all of whom distinguished themselves in
point of services to the United States
and among whom was the late Mai. Gen
Washburn. Israel Washburn. jr., Cover
nor of Maine; Elihu Benjamin Wash
burn, member of Congress. Secretary of
State, and Minister to France. Charles
Ames Washburn, editor Alta, California.
and Minister to Paraguay; Samuel Ben
jamin Washburn. volunteer captain, L.
