Seattle Genealogical Society Tip of the Week 2020

TIP OF THE WEEK – HONORING SUFFRAGISTS
This year is the 100th anniversary of the passing of the 19th Amendment by Congress which gave women of the United States voting rights in every state of the union for the first time. One educational project honoring this occasion is a joint effort of the Washington State Historical Society, the Women’s History Consortium, and the Women’s Commission. At Find-a-Grave, they have built and continue to add to a virtual cemetery and memorials for known suffragists of Washington State. It’s 66 memorials and growing. You can visit this virtual cemetery here:

    Thank you for posting this tip. I’ve created my own virtual cemetery for a specific ethnic group of suffragists.
