Many Baha'is have lived in our cluster throughout the years. Some of them have had international, national, regional or local impact in the development of the faith. Remarkable people like Florence Morton, the Struven Family, and Amelia Collins have honored our cluster at some time in their lives.
Born Florence Eleanor Reed, in Worcester, Massachusetts on October 12, 1876 and the daughter of Frederick E. and Sarah Reed (née Wood), Florence Morton was one of the early Bahá’ís of the region and Treasurer of the National Spiritual Assembly of the Bahá’ís of the United States. She married Fred S. Morton on May 3, 1911 and together they had one son, Stanley Reed Morton (born December 28, 1912), who also became active in the early Bahá’í community of Worcester (1, 2, 10).
