RUTHIE by Harle H. Tinney

by Harle H. Tinney

RUTHIE by Harle H. Tinney tells the story of Ruth Emily Betzer Tinney, whose life was shaped by early loss, strong family roots, and unwavering determination. Raised in rural New England, she learned resilience through hard work, faith, and self-reliance. Alongside her husband, Harold “Red” Tinney, she survived the Great Depression and restored historic homes while raising a family. In later years, Ruthie played a vital role in preserving Newport’s historic mansions, most notably Belcourt Castle.
