Susan B. Anthony
Susan B. Anthony died at the age of 86 of heart failure and pneumonia in her home in Rochester, New York, on March 13, 1906. She was buried at Mount Hope Cemetery, Rochester. At her birthday celebration in Washington D.C. a few days earlier, Anthony had spoken of those who had worked with her for women's rights: "There have been others also just as true and devoted to the cause — I wish I could name every one — but with such women consecrating their lives, failure is impossible!" "Failure is impossible" quickly became a watchword for the women's movement.
Una R. Winter
She was the director of the Susan B. Anthony Memorial Committee of California and collected material about Susan B. Anthony and her family. Her papers are at the Huntington Library, Manuscripts Department, and include material about Mary Ritter Beard, Carrie Chapman Catt, and Alma Lutz, in addition to material about Susan B. Anthony. There are also some letters (1936–46) from various Congressmen to Una Richardson Winter regarding the Equal Rights Amendment.
The bulk of the Susan B. Anthony Papers at the Sophia Smith Collection, Smith College, came by Una R. Winter.
The Amy C. Ransome Collection was donated to University of Southern California by Winter; Amy Cordoba Rock Ransome (1872–1942), suffragist, was a National Woman's Party leader who devoted her life to promote equal rights for women.
