Washington's only private
institution specifically for the
foster care of colored children
will formally observe its Goth
anniversary next Sunday.
The Merriweather Home for
Children, located in an oldfash-
toned double red brick house at
1873 Euclid street NV, is COM
paratively little known to most
District residents.
But 1t has operated continue
ously under it's congressional
charter since the Civil War.
Today. it cares for "a children
ranging in age from 4 to Is.
Children Left. in Camps.
It's roots go back, relates an
historical account by Mrs. Marea
Ogle, president, to autumn of
1862, when contraband families
which had gathered. in. camps
here were transferred to Airing
ton Heights by order, Of the War
Department.
/, This left 40 or so orphaned
children in the abandoned
camps ''in utter desolatioll. . A
group Of benevolent women UNI
7dertook TO make the outcasts
more comfortable and set about
providing q home for them.
An association Of interested
citizens was organized with Mrs.
S. C. Porneroy, wife of a Senator.
as the first president. on Febru-
airy Is. 1863, the body was in
corporated by act of Congress
and 1.-The National Association
for the Relief OF Destitute Col
ored Women and Children was
born.
Used Abandoned Building.
The association appealed to
the Secretary of War for a suit
able building. He advised the
group to look for something that
had been abandoned. Al build
ing was found an Georgetown.
described to the board on June 2.
1868, by Daniel Breed as the
property of Richard Cox, who
had gone to Virginia as q major
and taken up arms against the
Union.
An order from the Secretary
of War cleared the way for use
of the residence. The institution
progressed until the pending re-
turn of Mai. Cox forced the
association to seek new quarters.
In 1866, a tract Of land was
purchased for $4,000 consisting
Of five lots on the extension of
Eighth street, above Barry place.
The Freedmen's Bureau under
took the building. Congress APP
propriated $1,000 for the Use of
the association. "A two-Story
brick building went up. Later.
in 1890, a wing was constructed
and additional land acquired.
Support Withdrawn.
Congress granted $4,000 q year
to carry on the home until 1892
when it Withdrew support to
private. child-caring institutions
The same year, the women were
removed from the institution to
one operated by the city for
destitute women.
The burden Of the homes sup
port then fell on the citizens,
including Mrs. Mary L. Merri-
weather, one Of its presidents for
whom 1t is named. The Eighth
street property was sold to the
city and the Euclid street home
was bought.
The home attempts to provide
a family-like atmosphere for It's
children today. This is. not ais
difficult as it sounds. since there
are many brother and sister
combinations, including q brood
of i've from one family.
The children go to public
school and church. Each has his
| household work assignment.
