- Abstract
For more information on the Suffragettes of the WSPU and the Independent WSPU see: 'Keep your eyes on us because there is no more napping: the wartime suffrage campaigns of the Suffragettes of the WSPU and the Independent WSPU' for The Politics of Suffrage, eds. ' See: Karen, Hunt, "Journeying through suffrage: the politics of Dora Montefiore" in A Suffrage Reader: Charting Direction in British Suffrage History, eds. Within the program, I detailed her wartime suffrage activism and role in establishing the Suffragettes of the WSPU in 1915, her contributions as a London County Councillor for Lambeth in the interwar period and her post-war role in memorialising the suffragette campaign. Rose Lamartine Yates was the mainstay of the Wimbledon WSPU from 1908-1915, she established a wartime suffrage organisation (the Suffragettes of the WSPU) in 1915, became a London County Councillor in 1919 and was one of the founding members of the Women's Record Room (a repository that now forms part of the Suffragette Fellowship Collection).
