Tyler is the great-grand-nephew of Harry Burn, who was in the 1920 special session of the Tennessee legislature and cast the deciding vote for the 19th Amendment’s ratification.

Twins Abbay and Phoebe Wallace, second graders at Campus School in Memphis, hold their poster and photograph of their great-great-great-grandmother, Memphis suffragist Mamie Duffy Willingham. This is what’s in Mrs. Willingham’s obituary: “When Carrie Chapman Catt fired women with dreams of voting, Mrs.
Willingham was a member of the suffrage group here, and escorted by “stunning police officers”
—- led the group’s first parade down Main.” This was written on October 15, 1952.
