Women’s History
"The ongoing invisibility of women and girls is a serious issue for our country, and for the world. The invisibility of our history, heroes, stories, challenges, and success handicaps the future of all Americans, and it deeply affects our economy and our communities."--Megan Smith, U.S. Chief Technology OfficerWhat History Isn’t
“History isn’t about dates and places and wars. It’s about the people who fill the spaces between them.”

Painting by Samuel and Ruth (Whittier) Shute
This entry was posted in History and tagged painting, Ruth Whittier Shute, Samuel Shute. Bookmark the permalink.
The Historic Middletown Museum in Middletown Kentucky has two paintings by Ruth (Whittier) Shute. They are “Portrait with Roses” the label that goes with this painting states – My Great Grandmother Ruth Whittier Tarbell Blankenbaker who is the daughter of the artist and the mother of Addie Mae Tarbell Blankenbaker Wetherby. The other portrait does not have a name but is identified. Contact me for information and a jpeg of the portraits.
Mark, I have more information on Ruth’s children by her 2nd husband at http://www.cowhampshireblog.com/2006/10/27/dover-new-hampshire-artist-ruth-whittier-shute-1803-1882/ including Ruth Whittier Tarbell Blankenbaker. If you would like to share the portraits for me to post on this blog, let me know otherwise I will just leave your comment posted here should anyone be looking for more portraits.

I’ll send them along with the info for the other painting. Also have a photo of the house she lived in here in town.
