akuchling: Sherlock Hemlock (Default)
I began pulling together web resources on the first biographical entry I want to write: Grace Wilbur Trout, who was an Illinois suffragist around 1913. There's a passing reference to her on one page, but no entry for her specifically.

Outlining a biography is hard! Right now I only have a scattered pile of facts, and they're largely tied to the 1910s suffrage struggle. I know nothing of her life beyond her birthplace, and her later life in Florida is also vague -- she was on the civic planning board for 14 years, but what she did is still unknown. I may only end up with a stub article, but that'll still be something.
