The Madison County Milk House catches up with Madison County Historian Matt Urtz on the last day of Women's History Month. Did you know that Madison County has a rich history of women who went against social norms to improve the lives of others? From the daughter and sister of two U.S. Presidents, to a woman from Brookfield who spent her life educating women of color in the mid 1800s, to the first ever female Madison County Court Judge who was sworn in just this year. Take a journey through history with us.
