Mother's Magazine, "a monthly periodical devoted to mothers", was founded in 1833 by the members of the First Maternal Association of Utica, New York. In 1834, the magazine and its editor moved to New York City.
For the next decade, as Elizabeth Shanklin describes in her study of the First Maternal Association, Mother's Magazine provided a network of communication by publishing reports from maternal associations in rural communities, in Maine, Massachusetts, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, New Jersey, New York, Michigan, and South Carolina, from the urban centers of Boston, New York City, Philadelphia, Chicago, Richmond, and from London and Hawaii.
