Infobox and lede

  • Commas around "after Madison's death in 1849"
  • "writing two memoirs and attempting to get them published." → "writing and attempting to publish two memoirs."
  • Mention what happened in 2003 to make them not the standard

Biography

  • "Anna's sister was Dolley Madison," → "Cutts's aunt was First Lady Dolley Madison"
  • "wrote to the Madisons"
  • "getting signatures" → "acquiring signatures"
  • "life in general" → "general life"
  • "devastated at" → "devastated by"
  • No commas around "Dolley" in the phrase "when her sister Dolley died in 1838"
  • Link Fourth of July

Memoirs

  • Who is "she" in "she had instructed that her private letters be burned"?
  • No commas around "Annie" in "Cutts and her sister Annie"
  • No quotes around "confiscated" per MOS:QUOTEPOV
  • "between the two works" to specify that it isn't the relationship between the two women
  • "thirty-two or fifty seven" → "32 or 57" per MOS:NUMERAL
  • "skipping 1801 to 1809" → "omitting the period between 1801 and 1809"
  • "sixty-one or ninety five" → "61 or 95" per MOS:NUMERAL
  • "[the Madison's]" → "[the Madisons']"
  • Again, what happened in 2003 to preclude this as the standard of Dolley's life?
  • "Cutts' original memoirs" → "Cutts's original memoirs" per MOS:'S (yes I think it's dumb, but it's MOS)
