spent in White Plains, New York. Her parents ran a tutorial school at
Seal Harbor, Maine, during the summers, and it was there that she most
fully enjoyed her childhood. Seal Harbor was shere her deepest sense of
home remained all her life.
A 1924 graduate of Radcliffe Collere, Dorothea taught English for
five years at Hampton Institute in Virginia, a private high school for
Black students. There she met Clay Treadway, whom she married in 1930.

Raised a Unitarian, Dorothea joined the Society of Friends after her
marriage, and was an active member as long as her health permitted. She
and Clay were founding members of the Des Moines Valley Monthly Meeting.
She was a lover of good music, good literature, and Nature in its
tamer forms. In politics and religion she espoused traditional Liberal
views. She did not change her opinions when they went out of fashion.
She talked of her hopes for progress toward world peace and the need for
world government in her last conversations with her family.
Dorothea had four children, thirteen grandchildren, and six
great-grandchildren. Her children are Allen of Tecumseh, Missouri, Ann
of Wayland, Massachusetts, Roy of Normal, Illinois, and Ray of
Greensboro, North Carolina.
