The Historian's World

[Eva Elisabeth]

It's quite a while (few yrs...) ago that I tried to "figure" this question (maybe we did on the forum?). My book is far away and I forgot - what is the source for Baker's statement? I think I somewhere also read the claim Mick thinks possible - too many too little educated females to give the license to all is possibly what Mary felt.

(If I recall correctly, at least in a few states - New York I remember - women had the right to vote in the beginnings of the US if they owned property or means. This right was later withdrawn.)
