Dulcenia (also spelled Dulcina) Daily was a woman who had endured a lot of loss and hardship in her life. She was widowed at young age when her husband died just three years into their marriage, and she raised her son on her own, only to have him die in the Civil War. She worked for years in a department in Washington D.C. helping people overcome their struggles following the war, and later in life she became world traveled.
She left an estate behind with specific instructions to establish a home for aged women in Michigan, and in doing so, set in motion changes in state law after her death. This is the story of Dulcenia Home that she established.
