Eugenia Dunlap Potts
Eugenia Dunlap Potts (April 14, 1840 - February 29, 1912) was a writer in Lancaster, Kentucky. She owned and edited the Illustrated Kentuckian. She wrote poetry and historical works. Potts was recognized by the State of Kentucky for her contributions as a Kentucky author with a plaque outside the site of her former home. Her 'Song of Lancaster' was described as a 'metrical history after the style of Hiawatha'. Longfellow corresponded with her approvingly about it. She also wrote the essay 'Women’s Work in Kentucky'. In May 1892, Potts joined a new monthly publication focused on 'literature, education and art', called the Illustrated Kentuckian.
