Biographical Sketches

We need help with building a series of biographical sketches as part of the Kentucky Woman Suffrage Project. The sketches will later be edited by Dr. Melanie Goan for inclusion later in Women and Social Movements in the United States, 1600-2000 (Alexander Street Press). Click here to post your favorite suffragist’s biography to the H-Kentucky network today.
