Which detail supports the central idea that Elizabeth Cady Stanton married a man who was also interested in human rights? Elizabeth Cady was born in Johnstown, New York on November 12, 1815, the daughter of Daniel Cady, a lawyer, a judge, and land speculator, and Margaret Livingston Cady. Elizabeth was educated at a local boys school and graduated from the Troy Female Seminary in Troy, New York in 1832. She met Henry Brewster Stanton in Peterboro, New York, at the home of her cousin, philanthropist Gerrit Smith. Henry was a popular abolitionist speaker and frequently stopped at the Smith home in the course of his lecture circuit. Against her family's wishes, she married Henry on May 1, 1840, in a ceremony that omitted the vow "to obey." Their honeymoon was a trip to the World Anti-Slavery Convention in London, where Henry was a delegate representing the American Anti-Slavery Society.

Answer:

The Stantons’ honeymoon was a trip to the World Anti-Slavery Convention

Step-by-step explanation:

The part that gives the support to the idea that elizabeth married a man interested in human rights is the part where the excerpt says that during their honeymoon they had a trip to a convention in world anti-slavery. And also in the excerpt, we were made to know that henry acted as a representative of the American anti-slavery society because he was a delegate there.
