PEOPLE OF THE WHITES: Franklin Leavitt (1824-1898) by Frances Woodard Richardson

Over the past several years Frances Woodard Richardson has profiled many New Hampshirites who have contributed to the development of outdoor life in New Hampshire.  Mountain Passages has published these profiles in a Series called ‘PEOPLE OF THE WHITES:.’ Earlier bios of Louis Fayerweather Cutter (1864-1945), Laban Merril Watson (1850-1936) and Leroy Woodard (1903-1985)  can be found in the Mountain Passages Archives.  More recently we posted her portrayals of Rodney Dallas Woodard (1905-1976) and Stuart Kimball Harris (1906-1969) which you can find further down in this post.
