Description
The Woman Suffrage Society of the County of Philadelphia was established by prominent suffragist Jane Campbell in 1892 and was one of an array of associations dedicated to promoting women’s suffrage in the Philadelphia area during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The Society’s meeting minutes reveal developments in promotional activities, which included fundraising events, the distribution of leaflets, petitions, and educational lectures. The minutes also record membership lists and financial statements, and trace the changes in the Society’s organizational structure and composition. Pages 15 to 22 are missing from this volume.
