    Source: Colorado Women's Hall of Fame Helen Fiske, born in Amherst, Mass., took her two last names from her husbands. She married Edward Bissell Hunt first, was widowed young, in 1865, and shortly afterwards had lost both sons from that marriage as well. Ten years later, she married a quaker, William Sharpless Jackson and lived in Colorado Springs with him. Helen was a long-time friend of Emily Dickinson and, besides becoming much more famous than her friend as a poet, produced many novels, including Ramona (1884). It dealt with the white man's subjugation of the native American indian, whose cause she energetically championed for much of the later part of her life. See her A Century of Dishonor: A Sketch of the United States Government's Dealings with some of the Indian Tribes (New York: Harper, 1881; HUS. J127c Robarts Library), and Report of Mrs. Helen Hunt Jackson and Abbot Kinney on the Mission Indians in 1883 (Boston: Stanley and Usher, 1887; Pam E 78 15 J3 Victoria College Archives).

    Helen Hunt Jackson on the Web
    Comparatively little is found of Helen Hunt Jackson's writing on the Web. She is primarily known for two full length books on Native Americans, the novel Ramona and the non-fiction work A Century of Dishonor . However, the influence of these two works is easily seen today. The novel's popularity has resulted in a permanent influence on the geography of southern California. Inland from San Diego, it is impossible to drive far without encountering the name Ramona on streets and major highways. The small city Ramona was renamed in 1884 after the heroine of the novel. The Palo Alto Historical Association notes that Ramona Circle and Ramona Street were both named for the novel's heroine. The book is listed in Traditional Classics in Children's Literature. However, the other book, A Century of Dishonor , had a more far reaching effect on American politics, chronicling the treatment of the Native Americans by the U.S. government. For many years Ms. Jackson circulated tracts and petitions in support of Indian causes. She went on nationwide lecture tours and challenged Theodore Roosevelt to a discussion of the condition of the Indians in America. After the uproar caused by the publication of A Century of Dishonor , Ms. Jackson was appointed a special commissioner to investigate conditions for the Indians in California.

    Helen Hunt Jackson describing her writing of "Ramona"
    Helen Hunt Jackson (1830-1885), activist for Native American rights and author of Southern California’s most enduring historical romance novel Ramona, was born and reared in Amherst, Massachusetts, a schoolmate and friend of the woman who would become Amherst’s most celebrated resident, poet Emily Dickinson. (Born Helen Maria Fiske, Jackson would be twice married: first to U.S. Army Capt. Edward B. Hunt who died in a military accident, then to William S. Jackson, a wealthy banker and railroad executive.) Jackson grew up in a literary environment, and using a pseudonym (H.H.H), was herself a noted poet and writer of children’s stories, novels and essays before turning her considerable intellect and energy to investigating and publicizing the mistreatment of Native Americans, especially the Mission Indians of Southern California. Her interest in the subject began in Boston in 1879 at a lecture by Chief Standing Bear who described the forcible removal of the Ponca Indians from their Nebraska reservation. Jackson was incensed by what she heard and began to circulate petitions, raised money, and wrote letters to the New York Times on the Poncas’ behalf. As one observer noted, she became a "holy terror." (Friends and critics have variously described her as "passionate," "volatile," "defiant" and "uncompromising." Historian Antoinette May said she "lived a life that few women of her day had the courage to live.") Jackson also began work on a book condemning the government’s Indian policy and its record of broken treaties. When

    Helen ventured to California in May of 1872 and used Indians native to the area in her writings. She then journeyed to Colorado Springs, Colorado In search for a cure for a Respiratory illness in the winter of 1873-1874. There she met William Sharpless Jackson, a Pennsylvania Quaker. On October 22, 1875 they were married.
    Since childhood, Helen had been interested in the Native Americans. Her book, A Century of Dishonor , published in 1881, was a historical account of the U.S. government's mistreatment of the Native Americans.
    In June of 1884 a severely fractured leg left Jackson a cripple. Even though she was handicapped she went to visit her Hispanic friends in California. Helen was always hopeful up till the day she died.

    HELEN HUNT JACKSON (1830-1885)
    "Helen Hunt Jackson, the author of Ramona , which appeared in 1884, was an impulsive, attractive, clever woman who called herself "H.H." Emily Dickinson's early friend, she had long been a popular author when she wrote this book, her only work that later times remembered. Her prose and her verse were alike undistinguished till she happened on a theme that stirred her to the depths and electrified her talent for a moment. "H.H." had gone to Colorado in search of health, and the state of the Indians there excited her pity. As she studied their history, the conquest of the Indians by the whites, the old crusading zeal of the Yankee abolitionists [surged in her heart, and] awoke in [her] mind [images] of a later indifferent New England. She thereupon determined to write the romance that paralleled Uncle Tom's Cabin, the book that roused the popular mind to the sorry state of the [enslaved] conquered race and led to a change of policy in dealing with it. Ramona thus became a part of American history. With all its faults, this novel remained, with its high vitality, a popular classic."
