==Personal life==
Addison was born on December 8, 1861 in Upperville, Virginia to Charles Addison and Elizabeth Anderson Addison, both of whom were slaves. She was the third child born to the couple and the second daughter. After her family was emancipated Lucy's father purchased farm land in Fauquier County and Addison began attending school. She later traveled to Philadelphia to attend the Institute for Colored Youth, where she graduated with a teaching degree in 1882. Throughout her life Addison served in several supervisory positions alongside her duties as an educator, including serving as a member of the board of trustees for the Burrell Memorial Hospital. Addison suffered from chronic nephritis and died in Washington, D.C. on November 13, 1937. She was buried in Columbian Harmony Cemetery and was later re-interred when the cemetery was moved to Maryland to become part of National Harmony Memorial Park.〔
