Ida Dixon
Ida Elizabeth Dixon (December 25, 1854 – November 22, 1916) was a socialite and golf course architect of the early 20th century. In 1904 she designed the Springhaven Country Club golf course in Wallingford, an unincorporated community in Nether Providence Township, Delaware County, Pennsylvania. Dixon was the first female golf course architect in the United States, and perhaps in the world. ==Early life==
Ida Elizabeth Gilbert was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on December 25, 1854. She was married to the Quaker businessman and Pennsylvania Railroad executive Henry P. Dixon. In addition to his position at the railroad, Henry Dixon was also the owner of the Henry P. Dixon Company, a manufacturer of grates, fireplaces, and furnaces, and was a dealer in tiles for hearths, halls, and mantel facades. The couple resided part-time in a large mansion called "The Gables" in Wallingford which was designed and custom built by architect Theophilus P. Chandler, Jr. in 1889 as a summer home.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://communityartscenter.org/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/CAC-History-Non-Booklet-2015.pdf )〕
