De Kroyft, Mrs. S(arah) H(elen). A PLACE IN THY MEMORY. New York: John F. Trow, Printer and Stereotyper 1860. (copyright 1949 in NY).Known also as the autobiography of a blind girl. [See references that follow.] Born in 1818 in New York, this spirited girl conquered unsurmountableodds that would have doomed many others. The autobiographical "A PLACE IN THY MEMORY," her first work, published by subscriptions that shepersonally solicted, was very popular and went into many printings. She also supported herself by lecturing. References: Sabin. BibliothecaAmericana No. 18322; Adams. A Dictionary of American Authors. Adams states: "A writer living in Dansville, NY, who became blind soon after hermarriage in 1845, her husband having died on their wedding day." Sabin thought enough of De Kroyft's work to include it in his monumentalBibliotheca Americana, A Dictionary of Books Relating to America. A PLACE IN THY MEMORY has a portrait of the author plus a view, 191pp.
