    This was an amazing women from Kentucky. I believe her will to get women involved in the business world was incredible. She created a club that is today an international womens business club and she was the first women to graduate from the University of Kentucky Law School.

    Cromwell was a woman and a mother before she became a state wide figure for women, due to her political accomplishments. She was quoted for saying that women should be content living the married life and that had her husband and son not passed away, that she would not of pursued a carrear in politics. That is crazy to think based on everything she was able to do while in office. Becoming Secretary of State and then Secretary of the Tresurer, both prominent positions never held by a woman in any southern state.
