A00400 - Final Notes on Highwarden Just, Amherst College Class of 1940: Margaret Just Butcher, Civil Rights Activist, Educator and Alain Locke Collaborator
In addition to his trailblazing father, Ernest Everett Just, and his impressive code breaking mother, Ethel Highwarden Just, Highwarden Just also had a big sister who herself made history in a number of arenas. Below is the Black Past article on Margaret Just Butcher. You can read for yourself the significant contributions that she made during her long life. However, of special note for the alumni of Amherst College please note that Margaret's first marriage was to a member of a fairly large and prominent Washington, D.C. African American family. From this union, came Margaret's only child, Sheryl Everett Wormley, a last name that she shares with Amherst College's Green Dean from 1972-73.
