Historical NoteReturn to Top

Susan B. Anthony made three trips to Oregon to promote suffrage in 1871, 1896, and 1905. In the late summer of 1871, after spending several weeks lecturing in California with Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan B. Anthony accepted an invitation from Abigail Scott Duniway to come to Oregon and help launch a Pacific Northwest campaign for woman suffrage. During her return trip to California in November 1871, Anthony made several speaking stops along the way to audiences south of Portland. Included is a course ticket titled "Woman Already Voters" for a lecture by Susan B. Anthony at Albany Collegiate Institute in 1871.
