Despite rancor from both their families and a hostile reception from the press, Douglass and Pitts were married for 11 years, until he died in 1895. She traveled with him to Haiti where he served as minister from 1889-1891. They returned to their home in Anacostia, Cedar Hill, and remained there until his death. Afterward, Helen Pitts Douglass was instrumental in setting up a foundation that would preserve Cedar Hill for future generations; it is now part of the National Park Service.
