Presented by the Hartford History Center
Maps
The map below shows the locations of approximately 1300 women who registered to vote in 1920. This is a small portion of the nearly 14,000 who registered that October. From this data, you can see voters lived all over the City of Hartford.
Hartford residents in 1920 had been born all over the country, and around the world. One woman was even born on a ship in the Atlantic Ocean, bound for the US!
