Women of the American Revolution - Mrs. Ralph Izard (1021 words)
The correspondence of Ralph Izard was published a few years since by his daughter, Anne Izard Deas, at the desire of her mother, whose anxiety to do justice to the memory of her husband proves her worthy of sharing in his fame.
Izard's wardrobe was robbed, and several of the marauders arrayed themselves in his best coats; valuable articles were seized in the presence of the mistress of the mansion, and an attempt was even made to force her rings from her fingers.
Izard's house was recovered, and restored by the conquerors to the owner, with a compliment to the matron whose strength of spirit had proved the means of their obtaining the victory.
George Izard (1776–1828) - Encyclopedia of Arkansas (1507 words)
George Izard was born on October 21, 1776, to Ralph Izard and Alice DeLancey Izard near London, England.
Izard, stung by the criticism, in 1816 published his wartime correspondence with the Department of War in an effort to vindicate his war record.
Izard soon advocated the establishment of an arsenal in Little Rock (Pulaski County) and, in a speech to the legislature in October 1825, highlighted the issues that would come to dominate his tenure as governor: natural resources, roads, treaties with Indians, Indian Removal, and the organization and strengthening of the militia.
