ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
"Ellen Holt helped to establish the Association House through wise governance and creative fund raising. She was the daughter of a wealthy Chicago businessman, who settled in the prestigious town of Lake Forest. Uninterested in perpetuating the turn-of-the-century social life of her parents, she chose the work of Association House and became President of the Board of Managers in 1900. Ellen served on the Board until her death in 1961." Source: associationhouse.org. Ellen Holt (1869-1961) was a younger sister of W.A. Holt.
