Women and the VoteThe uphill struggle for women's suffrage began quietly in 1848 at a rights convention at Seneca Falls, N.Y. At the time, women had virtually no rights under the law. Men had complete control of children, complete and sole ownership of property and, if a wife worked, the employer was bound by law to pay her wages to her husband. Women were also denied the rights of survivorship. A man could, and often did, ignore his wife in his will leaving hispossessions to a male heir. The purpose of the convention was to balance the scales by gaining rights for women equal to those of men.

(A) fight for women’s rights ofsurvivorship
