by: Casey Bannen

Born: May 27 th 1818 Birthplace: Horner, New Jersey Parents: Ananias Jenks and Lucy Webb Received only a few years of basic education in Homer’s district schools At age 17 Amelia began teaching in Clyde, New York Amelia was also a governess and tutor for a family in Waterloo, New York married Dexter C. Bloomer ( newspaper editor - edited Seneca County Courier - and attorney) {they resided to Seneca Falls, New York} Amelia was a temperance and women’s rights reformer Amelia wrote anonymous reform-minded articles for local papers including the Courier, the Water Bucket, a temperance paper, and the Free Soil Union. Early reform interest was confined primarily to the temperance movement, but long believed in equality of men and women ABOUT AMELIA

ABOUT AMELIA (CONT.) Striked the promise to obey from her marriage vows Attended the 1848 women’s rights convention in Seneca Falls Founded the Lily (a monthly journal) “It is woman that speaks through the Lily. It is upon an important subject, too, that she comes before the public to be heard. Intemperance is the great foe to her peace and happiness… surely she has a right to wield the pen for its suppression… It is this which she purposes to do in the columns of the Lily” ~Amelia Bloomer (January 1 st 1849) The Lily soon began to include articles on women suffrage, property rights, education, employment, and dress reform. Some articles were written by Elizabeth Cady Staton, but mostly by Amelia Bloomer. In 1851 she adopted the women’s clothing reform style, with which her name became linked because of her early and strong advocacy – she promoted the “bloomer costume” (short skirt and loose trousers that gathered at the ankles) in the Lily From she served as president of the Iowa Women Suffrage Association Died: December 30 th 1894 Place of death: Council Bluffs, Iowa

“The costume of women should be suited to her wants and necessities. It should conduce at once to her health, comfort, and usefulness; and, while it should not fail also to conduce to her personal adornment, it should make that end of secondary importance.” “The human mind must be active, and the thoughts of woman's heart must find vent in some way; and if the garden of the mind instead of being highly cultivated, so that it may produce a rich harvest of fruits and flowers, is suffered to run to waste, it is not surprising that it yields nothing but weeds, briars, and thorns.” QUOTES

o The Lily influenced the way women thought and behaved in society, this includes the clothing reform (the “Bloomer Costume”) and political reforms (she felt women needed to have more of a voice in government). o Very successful in that women all over started to speak up and change their way of dress.
