Mary Croot Manson, located at 117 Main Street in East Hampton, NY, was a prominent suffragist from 1859 to 1917, known for her leadership in the Woman Suffrage League of East Hampton and the Women's Political Union of Suffolk County. She played a significant role in advocating for women's rights and frequently hosted suffrage meetings at her historic home, which still stands today.
In recognition of her contributions, a historic marker was established by the William G. Pomeroy Foundation to commemorate her legacy and the impact she had on the women's suffrage movement in Long Island. Manson's dedication to advancing women's political rights continues to inspire future generations.
