- Description:
- Jane Starr Basinger, born in 1804, lived through the most turbulent times of our history to see the shape of the 20th century looming in the not so far distance. Though she lived in the heyday of the swooning Southern Belle, she was nobody's charge. Considered a "Lady of Leisure" (1860 Census), Jane conducted business and ran her household with the authority and effectiveness of any man.
