Research Links
Oral History Project with
The Nursing History Society of The University of Michigan.
President and archivist of The Nursing
History Society .
The History Society has a collection of nursing artifacts. One of these is this large doll—“Mrs.
Chase”. She is a full-sized life-like
mannequin used in years past to teach nursing students “fundamental” arts. This
doll was donated to the Society by the Butterworth Hospital School of Nursing
Alumni Society (a Butterworth uniform, cape and hat are with the doll).

Personal
Life and Interests
Yours
truly as a toddler. I’m holding a
silver dollar that is related to my place of birth—your guess
Age nine (1953) at
Christmas. I had just received this
Horsman doll.
My family celebrating my grandmother’s 100th birthday
in October of 1999. Grandmother died
August 31, 2000, just two months short of her 101th birthday.
Hobbies
I
collect invalid feeding cups or “Pap” boats or feeders—name comes from feeding
infants pablum with the use of these feeders.
Early 1900’s
bisque doll dressed in WWI era nurse uniform. And if you haven’t guessed it by

member of the Ann Arbor Doll Collectors. To learn more about this group visit
