Philinda Rand
Philinda Parsons Rand Anglemyer (1876–1972) was an American English-language teacher in the Philippines. She was among the pioneering five hundred ''Thomasites'' who landed on the shores of the Philippines in August 1901 on board the U.S. sea vessel, the ''Thomas'', a converted cattle ship.〔Karnow, Stanley.

==Biography==
Rand is a native of Somerville, Massachusetts. She was born to John B. and Victoria Cheek Rand. She graduated magna cum laude from Radcliffe College (class of 1899), with a degree in zoology. The tall and slender Rand was only twenty-three when she went to the Philippines, right after graduating from Radcliffe College. Her trip to the Philippines was under a program instituted by William Howard Taft, then governor of the Philippine Islands. She wrote journals and letters to her relatives in the U.S. while in the Philippines, mostly to an aunt and a cousin named Katie. During her tenure as an English teacher in the Philippines, she also took pictures that show many aspects of the life in the Philippines at the start of the twentieth century. Most of these photographs were taken mostly in Silay and Lingayen where she resided. Her pictures include people, students, missionaries, buildings, animals, and sceneries from 1901 to 1907. Her journals, letters and photographs are now deposited at the Schlesinger Library on the History of Women in America at Radcliffe College. Her diaries also described her travels to China and Japan.〔〔(Radcliffe College Archives on Anglemyer, Philinda Parsons Rand (1899), 1876-1972, Teacher in the Philippines, Related Papers, President and Fellows of Radcliffe, Radcliffe.edu, 2007 ) (Defunct. ), retrieved on: April 24, 2009〕〔(Boston Collection of Philinda Rand Anglemyer 's Photographs, Rarebook.com, dated retrieved: 24 January 2006 )〕〔(Anglemyer, Philinda Parsons Rand, 1876-1972.

In 1908, Rand and her family returned to the United States, where her second daughter, Mary, was born. She lived in Washington, Indiana, New York, and New Jersey before finally settling, in Washington, D.C. in 1954. She served on local welfare and education committees, worked as a substitute teacher in public schools, and was active in youth and environmental conservation organizations. Rand also had a sister, Marguerite Rand.〔
