It depends on which country you are referring to. Here are some examples:
From the suffragette museum timeline:
1869: Britain grants unmarried women who are householders the right to vote in local elections.
1881: Some Scottish women get the right to vote in local elections.
1894: The United Kingdom expands women's voting rights to married women in local but not national elections.
1918: The United Kingdom gives a full vote to women of age 30 and older and men age 21 and older.
1918 Women in Britain vote in a General Election for the first time on 14 December.
1928: The United Kingdom grants equal voting rights to women.
Woman suffrage in the United States was achieved gradually, at state and local levels, during the 19th Century and early 20th Century, culminating in 1920 with the passage of the Nineteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, which provided: "The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of sex."
