Nice!
Great curation of photos and information! They omitted the 2(?) years before she started Radcliffe, when she lived on Brattle Street I think. She had some run-ins with Arthur Gilman, who not only founded Radcliffe but also the Cambridge School for Young Ladies, a prep school for Radcliffe. (Fun fact: the school eventually moved to Weston, which is why it's called the Cambridge School of Weston.)
