Major decisions regarding children were made by the fathers. Women could not vote. At the age of 15, Susan became a school teacher. She taught for 15 years. Then she began organizing womens groups to promote causes that were important to women. She helped gain better educational rights for women. She helped give married women possession of their earnings. After the Civil War, Susan became very involved in the Womans Suffrage Movement. After years of lecturing, writing, and appealing by Susan and other women, some parts of the United States changed their laws to give women the right to vote. The first state was Wyoming in 1869. Other areas and states gradually followed Wyomings __decision__. It was not until 1920 that the US Constitution was changed to give all women voting rights.
