Mary Evans Glass

In 1851, Glass and her school mates at Wesleyan College founded the Adelphean society, now known as Alpha Delta Pi, the first women’s sorority. Although ADPi is an active organization nationwide, sororities were discontinued at Wesleyan in 1914. Glass was the daughter of Dr. James E. Evans, founder of Mulberry Street Methodist Church. The cemetery is the final resting place of founders of Phi Mu and Kappa Alpha, whose members visit their gravesites frequently.
