The Declaration of Rights at Seneca Falls, drafted in 1848, was one of the earliest documents to establish the vulnerability of women in marital relationships. It included a demand for women's right to own property and other legal rights that their husbands had sole control over at the time. The U.S. Constitution, Bill of Rights, and UN Declaration of Rights did not specifically address this issue at the time of their creation.
