Female Land Surveyors

Do they exist?
Yes, according to the National Museum of Surveying blog post from last December.
Quote: "In Saskatchewan, it took until 2007 for the first female, Jill Susanne, to be awarded a commission. The Saskatchewan Land Survey Association was established in 1910. Apparently only the presidency is less accepting of women. In 2000, Texas finally licensed their first female licensed state land surveyor, Nedra Foster. While she was a Registered Professional Land Surveyor, she was the first LSLS.
I believe this is good enough, as this took hours of research just to find these stories."

Another one: Women Surveyors
