The State Capitol, which opened in 1878, is a gold-domed, Victorian-Gothic creation designed by Richard M. Upjohn.BOB CHILD / AP
The historic 1878 State Capitol building, with its dozens of statues and displays of historic artifacts, will soon become more-inclusive, when a plaque honoring 29 Black women suffragists of the early 20th century is cast and installed in what advocates hope to be a public celebration.
It’s also a invitation to help solve mysteries, with many details on the women’s lives seemingly lost in the mists of the decades and generations. There are no available photos for a dozen of the women, all of whom were born in the 1800s.
