Your ancestors might have been suffrage supporters from way back in 1894. Check this list of Pueblo Women to see and let us know. If you don’t have Pueblo ancestors but you do have suffrage ancestors, we’d love to include their stories here. If you are from a different Southern Colorado city, we would be happy to add your information here or link to a webpage that you have created. Let us know.
