Woman's Sphere

Updated 11 September 2022

This is the beginning of what I hope will become a more extensive resource for researching the lives of females ancestors.  The resources below have helped me learn what a woman's life might have been like in previous decades and centuries.  As I find other resources I'll continue to add them, expanding beyond social history.  If you have a suggestion for an addition to this page please leave a comment.

Researching Female Ancestors
  • A Genealogist's Guide to Discovering Your Female Ancestors.  Sharon DeBartolo Carmack
  •  

Women at Home, Women's Work, Education, and Leisure

Birth and Motherhood

Women's Diaries, Memoirs

Suffrage and Voting

Books and Magazines for Women's History including Titles, Recommendations, and Reviews

Women's Clothing and Fashions


I have not yet added any locality-specific resources but will probably do so in the future as I find them.
