About Eleanor Andrews

She was industrious and ingenious. She kept a pri- vate school in Stoughton in 1807-8, in the house then owned and occupied by Lewis Johnson, Sen. ; and subsequently and for several years resided in the family of Dr. John Jeffries, and was employed there in delicate needlework and embroidery, and as decorator to the house of Mrs. Jelfries, who was her friend and patron. After the decease of Madam Jeffries she opened a store for dry goods and millinery in Boston, in company with two of her sisters, which busi- ness she continued for many years.
In 1 824 she married Joseph S. Andrews, formerly of Warren, Me. They resided in Boston, and continued the business of storekeeping some years longer. Mr. Andrews died in Boston, a few years after their marriage. They had no issue. - Glover Memorials and Genealogies
