12:30 PM Historical Presentation – Battle over the Ballot: East

Aurora’s Journey through Women’s Suffrage In

commemoration of the upcoming 100th

anniversary of the ratification of

the 19th

Amendment, Aurora Town Historian Robert Lowell Goller will

explore the women’s suffrage efforts in the Town of Aurora and

Village of East Aurora in the decades leading up to November 1917,

when women were granted the right to vote in New York State. This

presentation will go beyond the important role the Roycroft played in

the movement and explore lesser-known local suffrage workers; the

challenge to convince Eat Aurorans – both male and female- that

women were qualified to vote; and the local efforts after 1917 to

encourage women to cast their ballots and run for office. Free to the

public. Aurora Senior Center, 101 King Street.
