Votes for Women League of North Dakota. Fargo Branch

Hide Profile

Organized to secure women's suffrage in N.D. about the time Miss Sylvia Pankhurst, a noted English suffragist, visited Fargo, N.D. The organization, also known as the North Dakota League for Votes for Women, was organized with chapters throughout the state. The Fargo group remained active through 1917. With enactment of an amendment appearing imminent, they shifted activities to Red Cross work, support of the Council for Defense, and helping out at Camp Dodge, Iowa. By 1919, the League had declined and discussion of forming a civic league as a replacement began.
