Dandridge was born in Copenhagen, Denmark to Henry Bedinger III, the United States' first ambassador to Denmark, and Caroline Lawrence Bedinger. \"Danske\", her lifelong nickname, means \"little Dane\". Her family returned to the United States in 1857, eventually settling in Shepherdstown, (West) Virginia. In 1859, Dandridge's mother purchased a Shepherdstown estate named \"Poplar Grove, which Dandridge would later inherit and re-name \"Rose Brake\".","Dandridge showed a talent and passion for writing from an early age, crafting poetry and keeping journals. Despite her conviction that \"it is my destiny to write\", after finishing formal schooling and her failure to secure a writing job, Dandridge put her potential career aside, returning to West Virginia in 1873. In 1877, she married Stephen Adam Dandridge; the pair had three children, Violet, Adam Stephen, and Dorothea Spotswood.","Dandridge began to write poetry again in 1883 and had her first poem published in Godey's Lady's Book in 1885. Her poetry continued to be published in magazines and was also collected into books. During this period, she also become interested in botany and the local flora of West Virginia. She planted and cared for an extensive garden of flowers, shrubs, and trees at Rose Brake. Eventually, this interest lead to Dandridge writing articles for horticultural magazines in the 1890s. Between 1904 and her death in 1914, Dandridge turned to writing works of history on local and colonial topics.","Permission to publish or reproduce is required from the copyright holder.

McNeill, an author, historian, and teacher, was born on the family farm on 23 May 1877, the son of Confederate captain James M. McNeill and Fanny Perkins McNeill. He joined the U.S. Navy in the early nineteenth century, and served with the Great White Fleet in 1907 on the SS  Glacier . G.D. McNeill received an undergraduate degree from Concord College and earned a master's degree from Miami University in Ohio. During his career in education he served as a high school principal; superintendent of Pocahontas County schools; and professor at Davis \u0026 Elkins College in Elkins, West Virginia. G.D. and Marietta McNeill were married on 29 February 1903 and had four children: Ward K. McNeill, James W.

She graduated from Marlinton High School in 1927 and taught in the Pocahontas County schools during the 1930s. McNeill began to write poetry as a child, and as a young adult began publishing her work in national journals such as  American Mercury ,  Atlantic Monthly ,  Christian Science Monitor ,  Farm Journal ,  Good Housekeeping ,  Harper's ,  Ladies Home Journal ,  Saturday Evening Post , and  Saturday Review of Literature . Her first book of poetry,  Mountain White , was published in 1931 in a limited edition of two hundred copies as a prize awarded by poetry magazine Stardust.","McNeill continued to write poetry and to further her education.
