Online Biographical Dictionary of the Woman Suffrage Movement in the United States

Published by the journal Women and Social Movements, hosted by Alexander Street, and edited by Thomas Dublin and Kathryn Kish Sklar, the biographies were created by volunteers.

[8] As one Rhode Island historian and project state coordinator put it, "Dublin and Sklar designed the project as a work of social history, meaning that the entries would focus on the ordinary, and usually unknown, members of the movement, instead of celebrated leaders such as Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, or Alice Paul.

"[9] A high school class in Massachusetts, and faculty and undergraduate students from Rhode Island College were among the contributors of biographies for suffragists from the Ocean State.

[2] A University of Delaware academic and students "found additional black women suffragists in Wilmington" and those names and biographies were added to the database.

[5] Comparison of the biographies of the three main groups of suffragists found that the NWP-affiliated activists were generally younger and newer to political work.
