In 1873, Harriet Peck Williams bequeathed the greater part of her estate to a Board of Trustees, instructing them to establish, as a memorial to her son, Thomas W. Williams II, a school which would apply to the promotion and advancement of Females Education. A charter was obtained, and in 1891, Williams Memorial Institute was opened as successor of The Young Ladies High School of New London.
