Frances Jennings Casement Papers
Description: Portrait of Stella Hall Green of Cleveland, Ohio. Hall was involved in the suffrage movement in Ohio, first in Columbus and later in Cleveland, where she moved in 1888. She was a member of the National American Woman's Suffrage Association and the National League of Women Voters. This item comes from the Frances Jennings Casement Papers, a manuscript collection comprised of letters and association records related to the founding and leadership of the Ohio Woman Suffrage Association. Casement (1840-1928) was born in Painesville, Ohio, and graduated from Painesville Academy and Willoughby Female Seminary. Her father, Charles Casement, supported abolition and women's suffrage and encouraged Frances to be active in social causes. Frances Casement established the Painesville Equal Rights Association in 1883, and shortly after became involved in the Ohio Woman Suffrage Association, serving as its president from 1885 to 1888.
