Evanston Women’s History Project Research Database

The Evanston Women’s History Project research database contains information about women and women’s organizations that the project has researched. It provides basic biographical and historical information, details about the significance of many women and women’s organizations, some information about sites where they lived and worked, and resources for researchers.

This database is a work in progress — we are always adding information. Please let us know if you have information you’d like to share or other feedback. Scroll down for a list of women and organizations included in the database.

Also, if you would like to do research on Evanston women and women’s organizations, the project’s research files and resources are located at the Evanston History Center Archive. For more on doing research there, please visit the EHC website.
