Updated
Jeannette Pickering Rankin was the eldest of 6 children (1 died in childhood) - 5 sisters and 1 brother. Her mother was a schoolteacher and her father was a carpenter and rancher. When she was born, Montana wasn't yet a state - it was known as Montana Territory. Having a schoolteacher for a mother must have been an advantage - her brother (Wellington) was Montana's attorney general (later a Montana Supreme Court judge) and one of her sisters, Edna Rankin McKinnon, became the first woman born in Montana to pass the bar and an early activist for birth control. Jeanette, as well as being a women's rights activist, was the first woman to hold federal office in the United States: She was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives as a Republican from Montana in 1916 and again in 1940.
Jeannette Rankin of Portland, Multnomah County, Oregon was born on January 31, 1884, and died at age 94 years old in March 1978.
