Topics for Project
editTopics for Research: 1. Endell Street Military Hospital: Hospital in England that was founded and staffed by suffragettes. This topic has a small article written with no much information. 2. Margaret Jane Mussey Sweat: Author of Ethel's Love Life 3. Kate Mullany: Female labor union leader, She founded the all-women Collar Laundry Union. She has a small article that talks more about the union/strike than her life and times. Krismcl19 (talk) 16:59, 13 February 2016 (UTC)
RESPONSE
Endell Street Hospital --- great idea. Essay is a tiny stub. There's lots of room for improvement! And this sounds like a fascinating topic.
M.J.M. Sweat: also good. I know at least two other students are considering her.
Kate Mullany: another good topic. Looks like there are sources to start with.
My leaning would be to start with topic one. Poke around and see what you can find for sources. Remember to also take a look at general histories of British suffrage movement -- that can provide information on the context, even if the hospital isn't specifically mentioned.
