Excerpt from The History Press article: "In 1889, by now living in the more affluent Russell Square, London, Emmeline helped in forming the radical Women’s Franchise League. In addition to women’s suffrage it supported equal rights for women in the areas of divorce and inheritance."(Submitted on January 27, 2024, by Stephen Palmer of Ascot, England.)
