Residents in Tenafly, New Jersey are planning a celebration and they are inviting Seneca Falls residents.  Tenafly and Seneca Falls are working out details to become sister cities celebrating that Elizabeth Cady Stanton lived in both places.

On Sunday, September 29th Tenafly officials and Stanton’s great-great-granddaughter Coline Jenkins will host a tour that includes Elizabeth Cady Stanton’s home and the Elizabeth Cady Stanton Railroad Station where Elizabeth attempted to cast her vote in the 1870’s.

Sister City Proclamations will also be exchanged.
