The Collection of the Warren County Historical Society
During the 1800s, people often died young. Unfortunately, Charity McCurty’s death occurred when she was in her prime. This painting was actually painted postmortem, not an unusual practice at the time. Mame Mote is thought to be either the sister-in-law or daughter of Marcus Mote.
