Congress of American Women The Congress of American Women was an American women's rights organization. It was founded in New York on March 8 (International Women's Day) 1946 following a 1945 feminist conference in Paris. Its primary organizer was Elinor S. Gimbel (wife of Louis S. Gimbel, Jr., grandson of Adam Gimbel of Gimbels department store). It was affiliated with the Soviet sponsored organization Women's International Democratic Federation. In 1948 the organization was accused of being a communist front organization by the House Un-American Activities Committee and was forced to register as a "subversive" organization. The organization was finally dissolved in 1950. Among its members were anthropologist Gene Weltfish, aviator Jacqueline Cochran, educator Charlotte Hawkins Brown, and author and artist Muriel Draper.
Ellwood House The Ellwood House was built as a private home by barbed wire entrepreneur Isaac Ellwood in 1879. It is located on First Street in DeKalb, Illinois, United States, in DeKalb County. The Victorian style home, designed by George O. Garnsey, underwent remodeling in 1898-1899 and 1911. The house was originally part of 1,000 acres (4 km²) which included a large stable complex known as "Ellwood Green." Isaac Ellwood lived here until 1910 when he passed the estate to his son, Perry Ellwood.
