Women's suffrage in the United States was achieved gradually, at state and local levels during the late 19th century and early 20th century, culminating in 1920 with the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, which provided: "The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex."
Before starting your project you should have a thorough overview and general summary.Wikipedia has an excellent post of Women's Suffrage in the United States You can find it here
