Edith Rockefeller was the youngest daughter of John D., Sr., and Laura Spelman Rockefeller. (William Rockefeller (1841-1922) who owned Bay Pond was her father's younger brother.)
As a young single woman, [Rockefeller] spent some time in Saranac Lake for her health in either 1894 or 1895. According to Titan: the life of 'John D. Rockefeller, Sr. by Ron Chernow (pages 414-415), in 1893 she and her sister had gone to Philadelphia for a rest cure at the Hospital for Orthopedic and Nervous Diseases, run by S. Weir Mitchell. Edith "required an extended follow-up rest in a cottage at Saranac Lake in upstate New York."
