On election day in 1920 millions of American women were excited that this was the first time they got to vote.Almost 100 years men and women both have been fighting to win this right.For this right they had made speeches signed petitions marched in parades and argued over and over again the women deserve to have the same rights as men.

This timeline covers the years of 1848 to 1920, which includes the famed women's rights convention in Seneca Falls, N.Y., the formation of the National American Woman Suffrage Association, and the passage of the nineteenth amendment to the Constitution, giving women the right to vote.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton was at a tea party with her friends and the topic was that women should have the same rights as men. 1869 two district factions of the suffrage movement emerged .Stanton and Anthony created the National women suffrage association also known as NWSA ,This was directed toward changing federal law and opposed the 15th amendment .  For the next two decades the NWSA worked as a nonpartisan organization focused on gaining women's votes in states.

 First women's rights convention was held Seneca Falls , New York. It two days of discussion.68 women 32 men signed a declaration of sentiments. The first national woman's rights convention took place Worcester, Mass.

Today is November 1917 , My name is Lucy Burns I am a suffrage leader. I was arrested six times while I was helping with the suffrage.I joined the women’s social and political union to work for the suffrage union in Britain.While I was there I met this lady named Alice Paul in a police station when we both got arrested for protesting at parliament.Alice and I became friends very quickly and went back to the U.S. in 1912 and we joined the congress committee for the National American Woman suffrage association.

My name Elizabeth Cady Stanton and i’m going to go to a tea party with some friends ,we are going to be talking about how women should have the same rights as men.Susan and I created a National women’s suffrage association.Which is known as NWSA.We did this in direct for the federal law that opposition with the 15th amendment.This stayed around for a few decades and focused on the right for women to vote.I had also held a women’s convention in July 1848 which had to deal with the women getting to vote.This convention was called Declaration of sentiment. 

Five women organized the First Women's Rights Convention - Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Lucretia Mott, Martha Wright, Mary Ann M'Clintock, and Jane Hunt.

When Elizabeth Cady Stanton, a Seneca Falls housewife and mother of three sons, sat down with the Quaker and abolitionist women, and decided that these wrongs should be made into rights. They called for a Convention, open to the public, to be held in Seneca Falls. Stating that "all men and women are created equal," they demanded equal rights for women, including - a radical idea - the right to vote. An estimate 300 people attended the Convention; the document was ratified and was signed by 68 women and 32 men.

The First Women's Rights Convention and the Declaration of Sentiments have earned the Village of Seneca Falls a large place in the hearts of people all over the world. There is no major part of our lives today which has not been affected by this revolutionary document.
