BIOGRAPHICAL/HISTORICAL NOTE
Phoebe Weston, born in Townsend, MA on August 26, 1814, moved with her parents to Ohio. She married Franklin Farmer in the early 1840’s and their daughter Alice Cary was born at Wilmington, Ohio, on Nov. 1, 1847. The couple and their children moved to Nauvoo, Illinois, and after some difficulties the family relocated in New Iberia, Louisiana, in 1851. Due to the family’s Union sympathies, the family left New Iberia during the Civil War. Phoebe and Alice had to flee to the Union army in Louisiana.
During the war, Alice served as an army nurse in hospitals in and around New Orleans and as a teacher in a school for blacks in Baton Rouge and in New Orleans. Her future husband, Samuel A. Risley, served as a member of the United States Army Signal Corp in the 117th Illinois Infantry Regiment. After the war, Alice married Samuel Risley in St. Louis in 1872, and they moved to West Plains, Missouri, where Samuel became one of the city’s first newspapermen and later postmaster.
Alice and Samuel had four children: Guy Weston (June 4, 1875-1965), Florence (April 1, 1877-January 10, 1926), Nellie (January 26, 1879-November 27, 1905), and Frank (August 29, 1883-1898). Franklin Farmer and Samuel Risley both died in 1894, and Phoebe Farmer died a year later on November 10, 1895. Alice became a member of the National Association of Army Nurses of the Civil War (affiliated with the Grand Army of the Republic) and served as national president of that organization for 16 years. When she died in Alexandria, LA on May 10, 1939, she was reputed to be the last surviving nurse of the Civil War.
SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE
The family papers and photographs of Phoebe Farmer, Alice Risley, and Sam Risley concern family matters, personal and professional activities, life in Civil War Louisiana (especially New Iberia and New Orleans), participation in Grand Army of the Republic and Army Nurses Association, poetry, education, and Civil War hospitals. The collection includes a diary kept by Alice Farmer (Risley) during the Civil War, an account of Sam Risley’s experiences at the siege of Vicksburg, and poetry of Phoebe Farmer. Scrapbooks also include her poetry, writings, and clippings related to Alice’s participation in National Association of Army Nurses of the Civil War. Photographs include family portraits, as well as cartes-de-visites of Union soldiers and Louisiana neighbors, specifically from Morgan City, New Iberia, and New Orleans. Also present is a mounted photographic print of African-American laborers in rice field, ca. 1880-1900.
A copy of The Captives and Other Poems by Phoebe Farmer (Laporte, Ind.: Milliken and Holmes, 1856) has been removed from the collection and cataloged separately.
Note: The Alice Farmer Risley diary had been loaned for microfilming several years ago and returned to the donor. It was accessioned as the Alice Cary Risley Diary, Mss. 2269. With the donation of the original, the microfilm was combined with the collection, which was filmed in 2004 in its entirety, including the diary. The older film was retained because the diary was laminated in the interceding years and is difficult to read in its current state.

Guide to Microfilm
Note: The Alice Farmer Risley diary had been loaned for microfilming several years ago and returned to the donor. It was accessioned as the Alice Cary Risley Diary, Mss. 2269. With the donation of the original, the microfilm was combined with the collection, which was filmed in 2004 in its entirety, including the diary. The older film was retained because the diary was laminated in the interceding years and is difficult to read in its current state.
