Her brother-in-law, Judge Baldwin, was an eminent Judge of the Connecticut Supreme Court.
Her cousin, Roger Minott Sherman, as has just been said, was an inmate of her father's household in her childhood, and was to her as a brother.

She had, after his mother's death, the care of Senator Roger Sherman Baldwin, her nephew, who was for many years at the head of the Connecticut Bar.

To her nephew, William M.Evarts, my father's house was as another home in his boyhood.

He was the leading advocate of his time.
Her son, E.R.Hoar, was Attorney General of the United States.

And her husband was in his day one of the foremost advocates of Massachusetts.
