I had to create some hand outs on Women's History for a luncheon this week. These are just quick overviews of some Illinois and Chicago Women and their accomplishments.
I gathered information from many sources and unfortunately didn't keep track of where anything is from. They all were 'Ahead of her Time,' and worked for the betterment of all women in their chosen field. I found myself choosing quotes and highlighting their work that still pertains to women today.

ReplyDeleteThank you, and thanks for stopping by, Sandi
DeleteThese are all very interesting -- and I am surprised I didn't know them at all, apart from Ida B. Wells and Jane Adams. Thanks for this.
ReplyDeleteHi, Jeanie. We talked at our meeting about the women, and how in the 1980's there was very little about women's history. I'm going to post a few more, and I have a couple I'm going to look into more, for myself! Thanks for stopping by, Sandi
DeleteWonderful post on interesting Women!! I enjoyed reading about them all!! Thanks for sharing!! Thanks for stopping by! You asked where I store everything....All in house decorations are stored up in the attic which is floored...Outside decorations and seasonal things are stored at the storage shed down the road that we rent....Stay safe, healthy and happy!!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Debbie
Oh, Debbie, I had no idea you had an accessible attic. When I had a shop I had a huge storage space up in the attic of the old barn...just me and the critters.LOL. Thanks for stopping by, Sandi
DeleteGreat post - I'm in awe reading about these women who were such pioneers!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Amy. And, it is just a snapshot of their achievements. Thanks for visiting! Sandi
