I did not see your first list.  However, the new Museum, Women of the West
Museum in Boulder Colorado was started by women- and about women.  Also, the
Denver Art Museum began with a woman's group lead by Anne Evans, daughter of
former governor, John Evans back in 1894.(?)  In addition, the Molly Brown
House got its incetive from Anne Love, wife of former governor, John Love in
1970. Today, the Museum is run by a woman, Leigh Grinstead.
