Alice Wolfgang celebrates the work and words of two local women: Mary Markley Boyer (1802–1858) and Maria Wieand Yeakel (1834–1915). Taken from diaries owned by Heritage Center, Wolfgang has gained an understanding of their lives and focus throughout the calendar year. Because so much of their work revolves around providing food, we also will showcase recipes from the early 19th century taken from a third woman, Mary Elizabeth Hiester and her 1801–1806 manuscript cookbook.
