Visit Springbrook Stock Farm, established in 1865 by Lucius Lane, father of national women’s rights leader Carrie Lane Chapman Catt. The double-brick home, completely restored by the National 19th Amendment Society, is of unique design. A barn constructed at the turn of the century is also located on the property as well as a prairie-grass area. Carrie Lane Chapman Catt was a founder of the League of Women Voters and spent her life working for the rights of women and the passage of the 19th Amendment giving women the right to vote.
