New Hampshire Tidbits: Buffalo, Elk, Fox, Deer; Baynes, Atwood, Coit, Means

A photo of Ernest Harold Baynes was on display at the Aidron Duckworth Art Museum in Meriden, N.H in 2013, along with a  scrapbook made by Baynes about saving the buffalo.

A word of warning: this is a complicated story, with numerous tangents. It starts with postcards that I recently acquired of wild animals, photographed around 1906 at Corbin Park in Grantham NH, by the famous naturalist-photographer, Ernest Harold Baynes.

Though not a native of New Hampshire, Ernest Baynes moved to Corbin Park, Sullivan County, New Hampshire when invited to work there in wildlife conservation. For the sake of this story, you can think of him as a New Hampshire Animal Whisperer.

Among many other things, he championed campaigns to save the American bison and Passenger Pigeons, both of which were near extinction. [Note Passenger Pigeons are now extinct, with the 100th anniversary of their extinction occurring last year, in 2014].

What is curious to me, is that each of these postcards have poetry written on them, along with a person’s name. I believe the author of all of these poems was Mrs. Alice (Atwood) Coit, wife of George Chandler Coit. She was a graduate of Smith College in 1894. One of her school-mates remembered her this way: “her never failing sympathy and humorous comments on various events lightened many situations. She was particularly notable for her dramatic ability; no house play was complete without her.” That description would seem to fit the Mrs. Alice Coit who wrote these poems.

That Alice also had close relatives with the same names as written on the other postcards. This fact makes my case even stronger–Elizabeth Coit, Gardiner C. Means, Winthrop J. Means, and Mary Chandler Coit, were the names of Alice’s nieces and nephews. All of these people went on to have interesting and remarkable lives, as you will see. And so with no further introduction, I present to you, my research on the Coit Family.

[Editor’s Note: there is an additional New Hampshire connection. The Reverend Dr. Henry Augustus Coit, the first rector of St. Paul’s School in Concord NH was a cousin to the Coit family that I have highlighted.

Dr. Henry Augustus Coit, b. 20 January 1830 Wilmington DE, son of Rev. Joseph Howland & Harriet Jane (Hard) Coit, grandson of Levi & Lydia (Howlard) Coit, great-grandson of William & Sarah (Lathrop) Coit, 2nd great-grandson of Col. Samuel & Sarah (Spaulding) Coit, 3rd great-grandson of Joseph & Experience (Wheeler) Coit Jr.; 4th great-grandson of Joseph & Martha (Harris) Coit, 5th great-grandson of John & Mary (Jenners) Coite.

Early history of this family can also be found in: The Coit family, or, The Descendants of John Coit, who appears among the settlers of Salem, Mass., in 1638 at Gloucester in 1644, and at New London, CT in 1650, by F.W. Chapman, 1874

IN MEMORIAM
’94 Alice Atwood Coit (Mrs. George C.), May 25.
For three years in college my life was closely tied in with Alice’s. She supplied a discretion which I sadly lacked and her never failing sympathy and humorous comments on various events lightened many situations. She was particularly notable for her dramatic ability; no house play was complete without her. In ’99 she married George Coit, the brother of her charming sister’s husband, Robert Coit. George was well known to ’94 and was welcomed gladly into class relationships. His death in ’34 terminated an unusually happy marriage. Alice’s last service to us was as Fund chairman–a position which brought to the fore her loyalty to the College and constructive interest in its affairs. Her gay and friendly Fund reminders held us up to a high ideal of service. Her civic activities in Winchester, Boston, and since the war in Cambridge and Rockport, were many and useful. To Lucia, her able lawyer daughter, our affection and sympathy are sincerely given. –Eleanor Hope Johnson.
