Lucy
Eaton Smith's sister Lilly McIntyre Smith was instrumental
in bringing Lucy's hopes for women to life. They were great collaborators
who worked together on a common vision. Lilly was an organizer and
a natural leader who brought the Dominican Sisters into new areas.
She established the original Motherhouse in Albany NY where scripture
classes were held, catechism classes were offered and retreats were.
She established the congregation in Philadelphia and Cuba just before
she died in 1901.
