From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nettie Tobin was a women who contributed to the Bahá'í House of Worship in Wilmette, Illinois. During her elder years, she found a stone north of downtown Chicago, at a construction site, and decided to use it for the Bahá'í House of Worship. Due to her age, she struggled to move it from downtown to the northern suburb of Wilmette. Because of her struggles, in 1912 `Abdu'l-Bahá declared that the stone be used as the corner stone of the Bahá'í House of Worship.
