Either the researcher did not have enough time to look through the Orcadian or that the paper decided not to report on this subject.

Would the Newspaper have any details, I have the dates at work so I can message you. It would really help to get a different perspective on her, she died in 1905 without seeing full suffrage. Thanks Lucy, hope you are OK. Erica x Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04133923387865590995noreply@blogger.com
