| Summary | "A Memorial of Mrs. Margaret Breckinridge" by John Breckinridge and Samuel Miller is a memorial work written in the early 19th century. This work comprises a memoir and letters dedicated to the life and character of Margaret Breckinridge, emphasizing her virtues and contributions as a devoted wife, mother, and Christian. The memorial serves as an intimate reflection on her life, aiming to preserve her memory for her children and loved ones, rather than aiming for broader publication. The beginning of the book introduces the profound grief experienced by her husband and family following Margaret's death, laying the groundwork for the memoir's purpose: to honor her memory amidst sorrow. It discusses Margaret's upbringing, her education, and her deep religious character, as well as her marriage to John Breckinridge and the sacrifices made throughout her life for her family and faith. Through the opening chapters, readers gain insight into her role within the domestic sphere and her commitment to raising her children and serving her community, setting a tone of reverence for her legacy.
