- Lucy_Higgs_Nichols abstract "Lucy Higgs Nichols (April 10, 1838 – January 25, 1915) was an African American escaped slave and nurse for the Union Army during the American Civil War. Known affectionately as "Aunt Lucy", her sole photo shows her surrounded by veterans of the Indiana 23rd Infantry of the Army of the Tennessee. She was as devoted to the soldiers as they were to her and her daughter, Mona. She lost her daughter and husband during the Civil War, and after the war ended, settled in New Albany, Indiana where she worked as a housekeeper to several officers and eventually married John Nichols. She lived in New Albany with her second husband John Nichols for more than forty years, until her death on January 25, 1915 at the Floyd County Poor House.The Grand Army of the Republic admitted her as their only honorary, female member, not only of Sanderson's Post, men's group, but of the United States. "Aunt Lucy" was treated as family and loved by all the soldiers that knew her. Due to their sustained effort, she was granted her government pension for diligent nursing and other services with them in 28 battles from June 1862 through the end of the war. She marched in victory with the troops in Washington, D.C. on May 23, and May 24, 1865 for the Grand Review of the Armies. Although her accomplishments were buried in archives for more than 100 years, in 1898, newspapers articles writing about the special act of congress, which granted her pension, once spread her fame across the country. These included The Janesville Gazette, The Salem Democrat, Atlanta Constitution, The Logansport Journal, The Denver Post, The Freeman, and The New York Times.".
