@MurielMary it appears that Clara Millicent is indeed the author: https://archive.org/details/discoveryofcircu00singuoft/page/n5/mode/2up?ref=ol&view=theater top left page opposite title page states that The discovery of the nature of the air is written by Clara Taylor of Northampton School.

Munitions work WW1?[edit]

I found two contemporary sources that state that Clara was involved in munitions work in WW1,[1] [2] but it seems more likely that this was Millicent Taylor. I'll take that sentence out until it can be verified. Wainuiomartian (talk) 05:34, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fascinating. Thanks for your contribution on Clara M Taylor. Millicent Taylor, my Grand Aunt, was definitely 'conscripted' into munitions work in 1916 at Oldbury in the West Midlands. It looks from your ref that CMT was also doing munitions work; such was the lot of a qualified chemist at the time. Nyilima (talk) 07:31, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
