This collection contains a daguerreotype pendant depicting Eliza Harry Stanton (Narragansett) circa 1852-1855. The back of the pendant contains a small oval repository holding a lock presumably of Eliza's hair. Stanton was possibly a descendent of the Ninigret line of chiefs, through Betsey Harry (also known as Elizabeth Harry), who was presumably her mother.
