Members of the League of Women Voters of the Hamptons, the Southampton History Museum and descendents of Lizbeth Halsey White placed "I Voted" stickers at the grave of the suffragette on Election Day. Lizbeth Halsey White was the first secretary of the Southampton chapter of the Women’s Political Union and wrote most of the pro-suffrage articles in the Southampton Press, signing them “Sec. of the W.P.U.” She also served as Southampton Town historian in the 1920’s and held many other offices as well. In 1915, after the defeat of the woman’s suffrage referendum in NYS, they reorganized and she became chairman of the group. DANA SHAW
