 Susan B. Anthony's Chestnut Tree

SIGN UP AND SUBSCRIBE SO YOU DON’T MISS THIS SPECIAL STORY.

The only living witness to Susan B. Anthony’s home life is a 150 year-old Horse Chestnut tree that shaded the family’s front lawn in Rochester, New York.

Pioneering suffragist and abolitionist Susan B. Anthony defended the beloved tree herself when it was threatened by a road project in the 1890s.

Today, the Horse Chestnut Tree is intermittently threatened by highway “improvements.”

TALES OF DRAMA AND INTRIGUE

The suffragists’ story has not been thoroughly told.

Suffragists were brave women who defied their families, society and the law. Their stories are filled with drama, intrigue, bravery, and personal sacrifice.

The suffragists who won the right to vote in 1920 understood that their work would never be completed in their lifetimes. 

Votes For Women 2020 picks up where these brave women left off and today we continue to move their dreams forward through celebrating the suffrage centennial in 2020.
