Editors' notes

Marquis Co. notes are an invaluable tool when working on the Twentieth Century. The information comes from the listee, preserving a verbal self-portrait.

We included this entry as part of W. I. Thomas's biography. Henrotin was a driving force within the Chicago women's club scene. She served on the Illinois Vigilance Association, the Vice Commission of the City of Chicago, and the Chicago Committee of Fifteen.
