Rhode Island Charters and the Suffrage Struggle Chronicle
A historical survey outlines Rhode Island charter origins from 1643, the 1663 charter, and Coddington’s governance, leading to later limits on freemen and representation. It covers the rise of suffrage reform, key figures, and the Providence riotous push for equal rights, including the 1841 declaration of principles and mass meetings.
