| Tiffany/Duncan comment: |
Tiffany 1897 and Tiffany 1910 call this just the Curtis Memorial Window, so likely Mrs. Curtis was the person who organised the window with the Tiffany company [TIFF1897, TIFF1910, DUNC1980] |
| Comment: |
There was an 1880 window in the previous building in memory of the same children, with a similar theme, and it is not known who made it or what happened to it [PS1880, BCE1880, HIST1885, DEDUCED] |

Tiffany 1897 and Tiffany 1910 call this the Root Memorial Window because Mrs. Root was one of the donors and was likely the person who organised the window with the Tiffany company [TIFF1897, TIFF1910, DUNC1980, DEDUCED] |
