A child born any time during 2010 -- as late as New Year's Eve -- qualifies the parents to claim both a $1,000 child credit and a $3,650 dependency exemption. When a child is born, parents should adjust tax withholding on their paychecks to account for the reduced tax bill.
Another organization, the American Woman Suffrage Association, led by Lucy Stone, was formed in the same year to work through the state legislatures. In 1890, these two groups were united as the National American Woman Suffrage Association. That year, Wyoming became the first state to grant women the right to vote.
For the next two decades, the NAWSA worked as a nonpartisan organization focused on gaining the vote in states, though managerial problems and a lack of coordination initially limited its success. The first state to grant women complete voting rights was Wyoming in 1869.
