Suffragette City

With the ascendance of Nancy Pelosi to the position of Speaker of the House, the first woman to do so, I was reminded of your Great-great Aunt Martha Stapler, your Great-Grandmother Helen Wood's aunt. Aunt Martha was very involved in the Women's Suffrage movement and I found a mention of her here:

"In publishing the Woman Suffrage Year Book for 1917, which the editor, Miss Martha Stapler, has compiled with great care, the National Woman Suffrage Publishing Company, Inc., believes that it is placing in the hands of suffrage workers and others an accurate, up-to-date reference book which has long been needed. "

Aunt Martha lived a very long and wonderful life, she helped your Grandpa Bob with many things and he took care of her in her later years. We all loved her very much and she would have been so proud of Ms. Pelosi's work.
