Morna A. Wood (birth-death dates):
In 1914 Morna Wood was elected to the Wyoming House of Representatives from Crook-Campbell county. She was active on behalf of children and their families. She successfully sponsored a law for the protection and regulation of child employment in Wyoming. While serving in the legislature she also effectively spoke against a bill that would make divorce easier to obtain, arguing that this change in the law would work against the interests of home and children.
