Mrs. Varden Shipp FERA Member Card [Image Courtesy of University of Kentucky Special Collections]
Annadel was a young bride of 19 when she married George Varden Shipp in 1896. The couple lived in Clintonville where George ran a grocery store, farmed and served as postmaster. Annadel seems to have always been a homemaker and nothing is known of her suffrage activities. She was, however, active in local women’s clubs.
