In 1912, State Librarian Lola Chávez de Armijo filed a gender discrimination law suit after the governor sought to replace her by court order, claiming that as a woman, she was unqualified to hold office under the constitution and laws of New Mexico.
The New Mexico Supreme Court ruled in her favor and legislation followed, thereafter allowing women to hold appointed office."
The marker is inscribed on its back as follows," New Mexico Historic Women Marker Initiative".
