She buried all twenty-four of her own babies—then spent fifty years saving everyone else’s. Born in the 1800s, Orleana Hawks Puckett lived deep in Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains, where doctors were rare and childbirth was dangerous. One by one, she lost every child she carried, with no answers and no mercy. Then, in midlife, she stepped in to help a neighbor give birth. Grief became purpose. For the next five decades, she walked miles through darkness and storms to deliver more than 1,000 babie

Orlean Hawks Puckett An Appalachian Woman Born in North Carolina with little formal education, she married John Puckett at 16 and settled near Groundhog Mountain in Patrick/Carroll Counties, Virginia.

In 1862 her first child, Julia Ann, was born and soon died. Then it happened again. And again. Some lived hours. Some not at all. Today we suspect Rh disease. She had only grief and work to keep her moving. Around fifty, a neighbor went into labor an

In the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, near Groundhog Mountain, lies a quiet row of twenty small graves. They belong to the babies of Orlean Hawks Puckett.

Others lived only hours. Today, we believe it was Rh blood incompatibility untreatable in her time. She buried them one by one, her grief clinging to her, as sh
