One of the first Bahá’ís of the West and possibly the first Bahá’í resident in England. Her early Bahá’í life is described in “The Chosen Highway” and in “The Bahá’í World”, Vol. VIII, pp. 649–51. She was a member of the National Spiritual 468 Assembly for its first two years and it was in her house in Westminster that the first meeting of the “All-England Bahá’í Council” was held on 6 June 1922. She passed away on 15 March 1938.
