The Menlo Park complex was an all-male environment; the closest workaday involvement of women -- not forgetting that Thomas Edison and several of his personnel were married -- was at the Sarah Jordan boarding house. Offering room and board for unmarried employees at the complex, it was operated by Sarah Jordan, a distant relative of Edison's. The house also played host to the experimental lighting system installed throughout Menlo Park in December 1879. Season 4 episode 85.
