Mrs. Nicholas Biddle (LOC)

  • Pixel Wrangler said:
    Mrs. Nicholas Biddle née Sarah Lippincott (1894–1962), was a daughter of Joshua Bertram Lippincott (1857-1940) and Joanna (née Wharton) Lippincott (1858-1938). One of her grandfathers, Joshua Bertram Lippincott (1857-1940), founded the J. B. Lippincott & Company, publishers, and the other, Joseph Wharton (1826-1909), founded the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, co-founded the Bethlehem Steel company, and was one of the founders of Swarthmore College. On February 11, 1915, she married Nicholas Biddle (1893–1977), son of Edward Biddle III (1851-1933) and Lillian Howard Lee (1862-1946). He graduated from Princeton University in 1916 and went into the insurance business. Nicholas served a lifelong term with the National Guard, was active in both World Wars, and his service with the Army reserves earned him the rank of Brigadier General. Nicholas Biddle was a well-noted, big-game hunter and was commissioned to travel the world and bring back specimens; some of his ‘trophies’ still reside at the Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University. Nicholas and Sarah had three sons, Nicholas Biddle, Jr. (1917-2013), John Scott Biddle (1925-2008), and Wharton G. Biddle (b.1928); and two daughters, Sarah Lee Biddle (Mrs. William F. Stokes, Jr.) (1921-2014), and Joanna Wharton Biddle (Mrs. Lewis Johnson) (1915-2008). Presuming the publishing date of c.1915, Mrs. Biddle is likely holding her daughter Joanna.

    Pixel Wrangler: The baby might be son Nicholas, born 1917, since the neighboring photos are from 1917.

    Thanks Pixel Wrangler for locating this woman's name. We'll add it to our catalog record.
  • Pixel Wrangler said:
    swanq : Truth is, I have no clue ;) so using the dates of the neighboring photos is probably better than using a circa date! I'm also *not* the go-to person for recognizing baby clothes to give a clue to the baby's gender;) I couldn't find any published photos of this photograph looking through Chronicling America, etc.

Alice Biddle, 1870 Graduating Class

  • Criz Stoddard said:
    Your link is incorrect out to further information. Amazing that a woman was in this class in 1870!
  • OSU Special Collections & Archives : Commons said:
    Thanks for letting me know. I've fixed the link and it should now go directly to the image page on the OSU site. If you'd like to know more about Ms. Biddle, check out this piece written by George Edmonston for the OSU Alumni Association page.
