When the Tennessee Woman Suffrage Association was succeeded by the League of Women Voters of Tennessee, Milton became the first president of the new organization. "Abby Crawford Milton was the youngest of the Tennessee suffrage leaders. Born in 1881, she was thirty-eight years old when the amendment passed; she gave birth to three daughters during the years of the movement's most dramatic growth, from 1913 to 1917. Wife of the publisher of the strongly pro-suffrage Chattanooga News, Milton was active in state politics even though she could not vote." [Carole Stanford Bucy, The Thrill of History Making: Suffrage Memories of Abby Crawford Milton, 55 Tennessee Historical Quarterly 224-39, at 225 (Fall 1996)]. Carole Stanford Bucy reports that "After her husband died in 1924, Abby attended law school in Chattanooga, but never practiced law." [Id. at 226]. Other sources indicate that she received her law degree from the Chattanooga College of Law.Upon her husband's death, she and her stepson, George Fort Milton, Jr., operated the Chattanooga News until it was sold in the 1930s. Milton was unsuccessful in her bid for state political office. She was active in the lobbying efforts to create the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
