When John was away, Abigail took
care of her normal chores. She did
John’s chores, too! She even bought and
sold land. Back then, only men did those
types of jobs.
Abigail felt strongly about women’s
rights. As the United States was
forming, she wrote a letter to John. She
wanted him to tell the men to
“remember the ladies.” She felt women
should help make the laws if they had to
follow them.
