Women’s Suffrage Women’s rights were few in the early 1800s. Women did not have the right to vote (suffrage) and often lacked legal custody of their own children. Most men––and most women, too––believed this was fitting and proper.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton She was an outspoken advocate for women’s full rights of citizenship, including voting rights and parental and custody rights. In 1848, she organized the Seneca Falls Conference, America’s first women’s rights convention, in New York. Delegates adopted a declaration of women’s independence, including women’s suffrage. Historians often cite the Seneca Falls Conference as the event that marked the beginning of organized efforts by women in the United States to gain civil rights equal to those of men.
