Norwich and District Museum and Archives, 89 Stover St. North, Norwich ON

Tarah Brookfield, author of Our Voices Must be Heard: Women and the Vote in Ontario,  will give a presentation on Dr. Emily Stowe and Dr. Augusta Stowe-Gullen who were among the first female physicians in Canada. Facing great opposition, this maverick mother and daughter team campaigned for women’s rights to higher education, careers in medicine, and voting rights between 1860s-1910s.
