Best Answer

Lyman and Roxanna Stowe were Harriet Stowe's parents.
Harriet Beecher Stowe's father, Lyman was the primary force behind his daughter's political and social thinking. Lyman was a New England evangelical minister, he was part of the anti-Catholic and anti-slavery movements. Both of which shared many of the same advocates, rhetoric and tactics. Lyman moved his family from New England to Cincinnati to save the West ( Ohio, Illinois, Indiana and Kentucky ) from the evils of the Catholic Church.
His children, Harriet, Catherine and Henry would be high profile people in the anti-slavery movement.
The advocates of both anti-Catholic and anti-slavery would saturate the nation with their inflammatory literature. They employed similar apocalyptic rhetoric to energize faithful followers to action against both of these threats to the American way of life.
