CensusDate/Location/CommentOthers Same Household
Census-188015 Jun 1880, Louise Home, Massachusetts Avenue NW and 15th Street NW, Washington, District of ColumbiaG, William W. Corcoran was well known as a philanthropist in early Washington society, with his name attached to many buildings, banking institutions, and the Corcoran Gallery of Art. One of his lesser known institutions, however, shunned publicity following its opening in 1871 as the Louise Home. Named after his deceased wife and daughter, the Louise Home was founded two years earlier, in 1869, for the comfortable maintenance and support of genteel yet impoverished ladies.
