Ada Kepley's Farm

Ada Kepley lived a busy life. She was the first woman to earn a law degree, an ordained Unitarian minister and the first woman in Illinois to be elected to serve on a school board. Her commitment to improving children's lives continues today. Her farm is now known as Wildcat Hollow State Forest. Local school children from Linda Lewis' third grade class in nearby Edgewood, Illinois, share information about the site online. Ada would be thrilled! Treat yourself to an end-of-the-season trek through Wildcat Hollow State Forest.
