  • Emma Buttles Andrews was born in Columbus, Ohio on June 13, 1837, to Joel and Lauretta Buttles. She married Abner L. Andrews in 1859, and gave birth to her son Charles Buttles in 1859; Andrews had additionally been carrying a baby girl in 1860, which resulted in miscarriage. After her husband was admitted to a mental hospital, Abner's father created a separate bequest to Emma that, upon his death in 1865, granted her a considerable sum. Emma Andrews became the mistress and travelling companion of the Newport, Rhode Island millionaire lawyer and archaeologist Theodore M. Davis, as well as an advocate for women's education. Andrews also served as honorary treasurer for the Newport branch of the Egypt Exploration Fund (now the Egypt Exploration Society), in which Davis also served as a board member. The couple made a total of 17 trips along the Nile River aboard Davis's yacht the Bedawin, mainly to the Valley of the Kings in the hopes of uncovering new royal tombs. Her diaries from those trips give researchers rare glimpses into her work with Davis in Egypt. The pair left Egypt in 1913 to settle back in the United States. Andrews died in January 1922. (en)
