Here are some more glass negatives recently converted to digital by your museum monuments men and women. This set has lots of children, and a few people riding wheeled vehicles. The set is probably from 1894-1920. By the end of that timeframe, film had replaced glass for the vast majority of photography. One photograph appears to be from 1916.

This week we want to highlight @usnatarchives and @librarycongress for this incredible look into the lives of #womenabolitionists. . . . #regram This week’s #19ForThe19th theme is women abolitionists, and we’re highlighting two amazing women who fit this prompt! Sarah and Angelina Grimke were some of the first women to join the abolitionist movement. Known as the Grimke Sisters, they grew up in the South in a pro-slavery family, but when their father’s health problems moved the family north in the 1820s, their abolitionist views began to develop. The sisters became well known not just for speaking out against slavery, but also for addressing audiences of both men and women (neither were popular practices in the 1830s). In 1836 the House of Representatives passed the “gag rule” which automatically tabled (dismissed) all petitions regarding slavery. This petition from the women of Brookline, Massachusetts--led by the Grimke Sisters--was sent to the House of Representatives calling upon them to immediately rescind the gag rule that had been passed, calling the resolution a violation of the Constitution. The “gag rule” was eventually rescinded in 1844 when it was argued that stifling the First Amendment right to petition was unconstitutional. Want to learn more about women abolitionists? Follow along with #19ForThe19th for more amazing women in history, and see our story today for even more women who fought to end slavery from the National Archives holdings. . . . 📸 1: Petition from Women of Brookline, Massachusetts, Praying that the Gag Rule be Rescinded, 2/14/1838.

#19ForThe19th - Hidden Heroines: There have been numerous hospitals established in Everett, and nurses were a vital part of the burgeoning medical community. Nurses work tirelessly to provide care to patients and their families, and today we celebrate their dedication to the profession. Everett nurses from an unknown hospital pose for a group photo. We love their crisp white uniforms! #HiddenHeroines #RightfullyHers #everettmuseum #emoh #everettwa #nursing
#19ForThe19th - Hidden Heroines: Teachers dedicate their lives to educating the children of the community. Everett Museum has a large photographic collection full of images of teachers and school children, including this photo of the first smelter school in Everett in the 1890s. Edna Knapp (top left) was a teacher at this small school on 9th and Walnut. It operated until the Garfield school was built and the students transferred there for lessons. #HiddenHeroines #RightfullyHers #everettmuseum #emoh #everettwa #teachers
