this picture was clearly taken during the Capitol Traction Car Barn construction, so 1890s.

Ever since I found that my relatives owned a house at the corner of 510 B Street and 10th SW, I have been fascinated with trying to find a picture of their house which would have been across from the Smithsonian. The 1900 census is the last the relatives are listed living there and I am wondering how to find out what came next for the house and that area which is now Independence Ave.

Susan B. Anthony with seven other women

This was taken just a few years before Anthony's passing; several of these suffrage leaders didn't live to see women get the vote in 1920. Dr. Anna Howard Shaw (1847-1919), elsewhere in the Commons: Harriet Taylor Upton (1853-1945): en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harriet_Taylor_Upton Carrie Chapman Catt (1859-1947): en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrie_Chapman_Catt Susan B. Anthony (1820-1906): en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Susan_B._Anthony Wonder who the other women were!
