Todd Home

The residence at 1007 Jewell was the home of Mrs. Lucinda Todd. Mrs Todd was the NAACP secretary and the first parent to volunteer to be a plaintiff in this case. Ironically, she had been a teacher in the Topeka Public Schools. She is credited with writing the letter to the National NAACP requesting their assistance with this local case. It was in this house where a lot of the strategy was planned.
