Clara Brown
When newly freed slave Clara Brown rolled into Colorado’s gold mining country in 1859 in the back of a covered wagon, she had two things on her mind: making enough money to live independently, and locating her children who had been auctioned away 20 years before. She would later accomplish both.
Annie Neal
Annie Neal ran the Mountain View Hotel in Oracle, Arizona. Neal provided nursing care, a private school for her guests’ children, and a location for monthly church services. Her husband operated stagecoach lines between mining towns. Neal was known to be a crack shot with her Long Tom rifle, able to take down and hold up any man.
Mary Fields
People who saw Mary Fields delivering the mail always had to take a second look. She was six feet tall and weighed well over 200 pounds. She was always seen dressed up like a man and puffing on thick black cigars. She was the only woman in Cascade, Montana, allowed to gulp red-eye whiskey in saloons. In her later years, she ran a restaurant and, when a customer refused to pay, she knocked him out with one blow.

During the gold rush, 32-year-old Biddy Mason walked behind her master’s wagon caravan from Mississippi to southern California where she gained her freedom and later invested in real estate. The time and money she spent helping others earned her the nickname Grandmother Mason.
