Charles Smith Ogden (1822-1904) was a Philadelphia Quaker businessman, genealogist,
and civic leader. He was born in Philadelphia, the son of John Melchior and Harriet
(Middleton) Ogden, into a prominent family involved in philanthropic and reform
activities. He was educated in Friends' schools and married Emma Corbit (1827-1874)
in 1848 under the care of Philadelphia Monthly Meeting (Hicksite). She was the
daughter of Henry Cowgill Corbit and Sarah Bolton Corbit. Her mother was an intimate
friend of Lucretia Mott. They had two children, Henry Corbit Ogden and Middleton
Ogden. Charles Ogden worked as a wholesale druggist before the Civil War, was active
on the committee to elect Abraham Lincoln, and served as Consul to Quebec, Canada,
1860-1864. In 1886, he began a tour around the world, which is recounted in his
travel diaries, 1886-1891, composed as letters to his son. The trip ended abruptly
with the death of his son, H. Corbit Ogden, in July 1891.
