message: Where did the town of Adrian get the idea that it is named for Mrs. Iselin? </br>Adrian is a man's name. The woman in the picture was named Eleanora O'Donnell Iselin (1820-1897), not Adrian Iselin. Her husband was named Adrian, specifically Adrian Georg Iselin (1818-1905), and her eldest son (born 1846) was Adrian, Jr. </br> Mrs. Iselin was Catholic, while her husband was Protestant. She and her children (presumably raised Catholic) were generous to the Churchy, and this webpage (which replicates a published book) tells about how she named a Pennsylvania coal town church "St. Adrian's" in honor of her husband, as well as the several saints named Adrian. Presumably, the Minnesota town got the name "Adrian" in much the same way. --Orlady (talk) 17:26, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
