When men went off to fight in the war, women took their places in factories, stores, and low level government office jobs. Women worked in factories, canning food and making cigars. Women excepted low wages out of desperation to support their family. Many women also took up Benevolent work during the Civil War, rolling bandages, knitting socks, sewing clothing, tents, flags, and blankets for the soldiers. Women became Nurses during the Civil War, helping to establish this as a career for women. This was an important event in women history because it was basically the beginning of the nursing career for females and this has a major impact on me because I want to be a nurse.
