She came to St. Paul in 1847 and was the first public school teacher in St. Paul. Her students spoke Ojibwe, French and a little English!

As a teacher she also had to teach her students how to clean and empty "chamber pots"

Women's underwear was a bit larger than it is today! And many parts of their clothing tied on and were easily removed to be washed or repaired. |

She took 7 modes of 1847 transportation to get to "Pigs Eye Landing" but luckily recently renamed St. Paul.

Girls and boys learned to sew.
