Association for Promoting the Education of Women in Oxford[edit]

@Victuallers:, thanks for writing this, @Aivin G.: thanks for linking to it. Can I query what ODNB says about "Green would go on to lead the Association for Promoting the Education of Women in Oxford five years later", i.e. in 1878? What I have found is:

According to The University of Oxford: A History By L. W. B. Brockliss page 373 {https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=rI8DDAAAQBAJ) the first president of Association for Promoting the Higher Education of Women was G.G Bradley Master of University College.
According to the Victoria County History https://www.british-history.ac.uk/vch/oxon/vol3/pp351-353 Mrs. T. H. Green was honorary secretary of the Association for the Higher Education of Women in Oxford from 1880 to 1883. TSventon (talk) 20:06, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I checked by source "TS" and it said "succeeding Mary Ward (Mrs Humphry Ward) and Louise Creighton (Mrs Mandell Creighton) in 1873 as secretary to the lectures committee. She was a founding member and the first woman secretary of the Association for Promoting the Education of Women in Oxford, established in 1878 to co-ordinate the teaching of women students. She resigned her secretaryship in 1883 but remained a member of the association's council until its dissolution in 1920." <== you can get this free if you are in the UK. I have finessed my text, but do be bolder and add all this stuff to the article. George Granville Bradley could do with this stuff in his article too and it gets Charlotte as an ex Women in Red member, an extra mention.

@Victuallers: Thanks, unfortunately I am in the UK but can't access the ODNB through my library. I have now published a short article on the Association for the Education of Women and will try to tweak this article shortly. TSventon (talk) 12:26, 14 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Victuallers: thanks for adding to the AEW article and (almost) taking it out of stub territory. I think I need to add a bit more about the women's halls and the home students in due course.

I have edited the articles for Louise Creighton, Charlotte Byron Green, Lavinia Talbot, Mary Augusta Ward and George Granville Bradley. Editing Bertha Johnson's article is on my to do list as there is no detail about her time as principal of the Association of Home Students from 1894 to 1921.

@Victuallers: to update I have just signed up to the Wikipedia Library Card Platform and now have access to ODNB. TSventon (talk) 08:28, 6 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Its a great resource TS, I use it every day. I'm working down this list] creating new articles from the red links. Good work on the association. Victuallers (talk) 09:22, 6 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
