Marking the contributions women have made to the United States began over 40 years ago in 1981 as a national celebration that has evolved from a week to an entire month. Since 1995, presidents have issued a series of annual proclamations designating the month of March as “Women’s History Month.” It also recognizes specific achievements women have made over the course of American history in a variety of fields.

From icon Sallie Ward and Mrs. Sarah “Sadie” Emison Pack to  Dr. Alicestyne Turley, Georgetown has a long history of strong, independent-minded and entrepreneurially spirited women. And history keeps repeating itself, with today’s Women of Scott County contributing their own stories and successes—and making Scott County all the richer for them.

To celebrate Women’s History Month, Georgetown/Scott County Tourism is featuring one local woman a day through March in its “Women of Scott County” series. We are pleased to introduce you to these amazingly wonderful women that make up our community.
