Clara Barton
(1821-1912) Dubbed "the Angel of the Battlefield" during the Civil War, Clarissa "Clara" Barton cooked food, brought supplies, and assisted surgeons on the battleground. Following the war, Miss Barton procured presidential approval to enstate the first federal office to record names of missing, wounded, and dead soldiers; she was also part of the expedition to establish the first National Cemetery in Andersonville, GA. Her decade-long efforts to organize humanitarian aid led to the founding of the American Red Cross, of which she served as president for 23 years.
