Whitney DORMAN
was born on
16 Jan 1932 in Providence, Rhode Island. On November 19, 1990, Clo was honored
by the organization of Montpelier Business and Professional Women with the Woman
of the Year Award. The following appeared on the program of that event which
was attended by about 50 people:
"It is not necessary to search far in the community for those who know Clo Pitkin and who without hesitation speak with sincere admiration about the kind of woman she is. Most recently, Faire Edwards said, 'Clo is the perfect recipient of this award. She's a woman of great character and an excellent counselor!' Clo's dedication over the years to the goal of establishing a center for women is reflected in the preparation she made during her years of education and teaching. She was graduated from Goddard College in 1953, raised her family in the years which followed, and in 1969 received her Masters in Guidance and Counseling from The University of Vermont. After beginning at Goddard as director of an adult program, Clo served as a counselor at Community College of Vermont and from 1974-1979 was Coordinator of Counseling at the college. She returned to Goddard as Associate Director of Admissions, and in 1981 had a private practice in counseling and therapy. During this time, Clo became an assistant professor at Vermont College. On the Goddard faculty during 1985-1986, Clo taught psychology, leaving this position to begin development of a women's center. In 1987, WOMAN CENTERED, with Clo as its Executive Director, opened its doors as a haven for women. The center offered workshops, support groups, resources, referral, and advocacy and became a drop-in center for women of all ages. In a new location at 137 Barre Street, the Center flourishes today and continues to serve the many women who need it. The community is benefiting greatly from having Clo Pitkin with us." Parents: William Augustine DORMAN and Marjorie Berton HEILBORN. She was married to Belmont Royce PITKIN on 25 Jun 1952 in Plainfield, Vermont. Children were: Caleb Whitney PITKIN, Seth Edward PITKIN. Daisy
Dorman
was born in
1888. She died about 1945. Clo Pitkin recalls that Daisy died while she (Clo)
was in jr. high or high school. Her husband Tom died previously. Parents:
George Dorman and Mary Tierney.She was married to Tom Cochran. Children were: Helen Frances Cochran. Ellen
Dorman Ellen married a Mr. Sullivan, and lived in Phenix, Rhode Island.
She was alive at the time of the death of her brother George. Parents:
William Dorman and Abbie O. Connor. George
Dorman was born in 1854 in Warwick, Rhode Island.
(25) Although George's marriage record (1884) gives his age as 30,
and his birthplace as Warwick, Rhode Island, no birth record could be found for
him in Rhode Island between 1853 and 1878. An obituary still in posession of
his decendants gives his birthplace as "Phenix." He died after 1910
in Rhode Island. Having been an employee of the Hamilton Web Company for forty
years at the time of his death, it is likely that he was over 55 years old, and
therefore probably died after 1910. He was buried in Elm Grove Cemetery, North
Kingston, Rhode Island. Obituary: George Dorman, for more than 40 years an
employee of the Hamilton Web Company, and for a long time engineer of the plant
died suddenly at the works Monday, probably from an attack of heart failure.
The mill was shut down for the day. Mr. Dorman was found lifeless on the floor.
Dr. Manning, Medical Examiner, was called, and pronounced death due to an attack
of heart failure. Mr. Dorman was born in Phenix, the son of the late William
and Abbie (Connor) Dorman. In 1884 he married Miss Mary Tierney of New York.
Both a son, William and a daughter Daisy Dorman, survive him, two sisters, Mrs.
Mary A Bates and Mrs. Ellen Sullivan of Phenix, also survive him. Funeral was
held from St. Berhard's Church yesterday morning at 8 o'clock with burial in
Elm Grove Cemetery. Parents: William Dorman and
Abbie O. Connor.He was married to Mary Tierney on 29 Dec 1884 in East Greenwich, Rhode Island. (25) George's occupation is listed as "laborer" on his marriage record. George and Mary were married in Our Lady of Mercy Church by William Hines, pastor. Children were: William Augustine DORMAN , Daisy Dorman. Mary
A. Dorman was born on 6 Sep 1859 in Coventry, Rhode Island. Mary Dorman's
birth record indicates that she was the third child born to William and Abby
O. Dorman, although there are no records of other births in this family in Rhode
Island between 1853 and 1878. Mary married a Mr. Bates, and lived in Phenix,
Rhode Island. She was alive at the time of the death of her brother George.
Parents: William Dorman and
Abbie O. Connor. William
Dorman was born in Ireland.(26) William's
occupation was not recorded on the birth record of his daughter Mary in 1859.
His was the only one not listed on a page of thirty such records that year.
He may have been between jobs, or perhaps had just arrived from Ireland.Children were: George Dorman, Ellen Dorman, Mary A. Dorman. William
Augustine DORMAN(27)
was born on
12 Jul 1886 in North Kingston, Rhode Island. He died on 28 Dec 1933 in Memorial
Hospital, Pawtucket, Rhode Island. The principal cause of William's death was
given on his death record as "acute dilatation of the stomach," with
acute appendicitis and appendectomy listed as contributing causes. He was buried
on 29 Dec 1933 in Elm Grove Cemetery, North Kingston, Rhode Island. Clo
Pitkin remembers of her father: "William Dorman was born into an Irish
Catholic family in Rhode Island. I don't know much about my father because
he died shortly after I was born. My mother told some stories about him but
found it very painful to remember the time my brother died and so did not ever
tell me much of importance. I surmise that (his) family did not enjoy the comforts
that the Heilborns had. Bill served in World War One in the infantry. He kept
a daily record of his service and apparently spent much time on the front lines
in Europe. It must have been between 1920 and 1923 that he courted Marjorie
Heilborn. He was a handsome man and people spoke of him as kind and gentle.
In 1923 he and Marjorie were married. They lived with Marjorie's parents and
Bill worked with Dr. Heilborn. I am under that impression that since Charles
T Heilborn Jr. did not have an interest in being a chiropodist or running the
shoe store, Bill was being groomed to take over the business. I remember hearing
that my father had seriously considered going into the priesthood at one time.
I know that he was a devout Catholic. He had a good sense of humor and apparently
enjoyed people. From all the pictures of Bill Dorman and his son Billy he seems
to have been a good and loving father and extremely proud of his son. When young
Billy died at the age of 8, Bill was unable to cope with his loss. He sought
comfort in the Catholic church and went on retreats to find answers and strength.
I assume he was not able to give much support to anyone else. He died a year
later of complications from an appendectomy. I believe my mother felt that
he had abandoned her. He is known to me only through pictures and stories
my mother told me. She always led me to believe that my father loved me very
much and somehow I always pictured him in heaven watching over us."
William had been a Chiropodist for 22 years at the time of his death, and was a chiropodist at the time of his induction into the army in April 1918. He was appointed Corporal in November of that year after having been in France for five months. He fought at the defense of the center sector at Haute Alsace, at the battle of Molleville Farm, the attack on Bois d. Ormont, Battle of the Grand Montague, capture of Etraye Ridge, and the attack on Bois Belleu. On October 12, 1918, he wrote in his journal "Went into battle on the Verdun front. Terrible slaughter. Many of our men wounded and killed." after five days of heavy artillery fire the company was again engaged in a terrible battle on the sixteenth. On the seventeenth he wrote; "Very little of Co. left. Being relieved 10 tonight." And the following day; "Back at rest camp. Poor little Co. Very few of us left. Thank God I came out safe." He returned to the United States in May, 1919 and was honorably discharged. He authored a booklet, "The Truth about Foot Troubles, Their Cause Cure and Prevention," published on August 12, 1933. Obituary in "Foot News," a publication of the Rhode Island Chiropodists' Society: "Dr. William Dorman, age 47, prominent chiropodist of Providence, Rhode Island, died December 28th, 1933 after a brief illness. Dr. Dorman was recognized by members of the profession as a man of sterling character, who with his soft spoken mannerisms won admiration from all who knew him. He was a charter member of the Rhode Island Chiropodist Society and a member of the National Association of Chiropodists. He was a believer of firm convictions and above all, maintained that "honesty was the best policy." Dr. Dorman was connected with Dr. Charles T. Heilborn's office for many years, one of the oldest establishments in Providence. He was a member of the American Legion, Richard Dennis Post. His church membership was St. Brenden's Church, Riverside, R. I." Parents: George Dorman and Mary Tierney . He was married to Marjorie Berton HEILBORN on 3 Feb 1923 in St. Bernard's Rectory, North Kingston, Rhode Island. Children were: William Augustine DORMAN Jr., Clotilde Whitney DORMAN. William
Augustine DORMAN Jr.
was born on
15 Oct 1923 in Providence, Rhode Island. He died on 14 May 1932 in Providence,
Rhode Island.(28) Billy died of Scarlet
fever, myocarditis, and acute cardiac dilatation. He was buried in Elm Grove
Cemetery, Allentown, Rhode Island. Billy was recovering from scarlet fever at
the time of his death. He was shelling peas with his mother one evening when
he fell over dead. Bill and Marjory rushed him to a doctor, but he was beyond
help. His cousin Nancy (Mary Ann) reports that, as Billy lay dead on the examining
table, the doctor requested payment of Bill and Marjorie for the visit. Parents:
