She cut her hair short, one of the first women to do so, always wore dark colors, black or navy blue, and always wore her academic robe to class. In addition to teaching literature, she was a serious amateur botanist, and is credited with finding a new plant species, <I>Monotropsis lehmani</I>, in 1903 at Roaring Gap NC. She was also interested in astronomy, and recorded notes on a solar eclipse in 1869, and the appearance of Halley's Comet in 1909. In 1916 she wrote in one of her notebooks, "Our fathers were men of wide vision, of good, hard, common sense. At that time, the rest of the world cared nothing, spoke with contemptuous indifference of the education of women and girls - What did a woman want with education? It would only unfit her for her domestic duties. Our fathers thought differently - but, as O. Henry puts it, 'They sawed wood and said nothing' but they did a good deal. They planted a small seed which has grown and developed into what we are today."<P> ----------<P> Children of Henry Renatus Lehman and Pamela Elizabeth Wolff<BR> Ellen Shepherd Lehman (ca. 1842-?) m.
