     Lucretia Coffin was born on 3 January 1793 at Nantucket Island. She was the daughter of Thomas Coffin. Lucretia Coffin married James Mott on 10 April 1811.¹ Lucretia Coffin died on 11 November 1880 at age 87.²
     Lucretia Coffin was was an outspoken leader of the antislavery and women's rights movements in America.

Her family were Quakers, and she became a Quaker minister in 1821. Like many Quakers, Mott was active in the abolitionist movement in the United States before the Civil War. Mott helped found two anti-slavery groups, and was well known for her eloquent speeches against slavery.

In 1840, Mott attended the World Anti-Slavery Convention in London, England. The men who controlled the convention refused to seat her and other women delegates. Mott responded by pledging to work diligently for women's rights. In 1848 she and another reformer, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, organized the first women's rights convention in the United States at Seneca Falls, New York. Out of this meeting came a series of resolutions demanding increased rights for women, including better educational and employment opportunities and the right to vote.

After 1848, Mott spoke widely for both women's rights and the abolition of slavery. Her book, Discourse on Women, published in 1850 discussed the educational, economic, and political restrictions on women in Western Europe and America.

After slavery was abolished in 1865, Mott supported the rights of black Americans to vote.^3,4
