Sorry to have so long between posts, but I've been having some computer issues and I'm now sharing a computer with 3 other people - fine for checking emails but not so great for hours of research!
When I'm able to properly research again, I'm planning a post about someone who I believe was grossly overlooked in Tony Robinson's 'Time Walks' (of Adelaide). It was great to hear about Mary Lee and Ebenezer Ward (I very nearly wrote 'Scrooge'!) but there were a few other people involved in women's suffrage in SA.
As always, I'm taking 'requests'. If you have a question/query about SA history, let me know by commenting below and I'll try my best to answer it.
Before I go, I have a question for you: what do you think a 'saddling paddock' is? Answer in the comments below :)
I'm assuming the obvious answer to your question isn't the right one ... so I shudder to imagine! Perhaps I need to go wash my mouth out with soap?
ReplyDeleteWhat era are you looking at, in your examination of suffrage in SA? I'm not a regular reader, so forgive me for asking if you've made this clear previously.
So sorry I haven't replied earlier!
DeleteI'll answer the question to 'The Saddling Paddock' in my next post, which is imminent (I promise!) I don't think I've said it before, but I'm looking at the immediate pre-suffrage era, so late 1880s to 1890s and particularly the influence of women suffragettes (although they weren't called that) but also the men who were in power at the time :)
Fantastic! :) Thank you.
