Personal Papers of Sarah Emily Davies

Title London School Board
Reference GCPP Davies 5
(former reference: ED IV (LSB))
Creator Davies, Sarah Emily
Covering Dates 1870–1873
Extent and Medium 62 items; paper
Content and context

These papers refer to ED's candidature first for the City Division where she failed to be nominated and secondly for the Greenwich Division where she was elected and for which she sat until 1873 when, because of pressure of other work, she did not seek re-election. They also relate to the election of Elizabeth Garrett, later Mrs Garrett Anderson, for the St Marylebone Division and the election in 1873 for that division of her sister, Mrs Cowell, and Miss J A Chessar, a teacher (GCPP Davies 5/1-3, formerly LSB 1-14; GCPP Davies 5/5, formerly LSB 16; GCPP Davies 5/39-44, formerly LSB 56-61).GCPP Davies 5/4 (formerly LSB 15) is a copy of Maria Grey's election address at Chelsea. GCPP Davies 5/5, 14 and 16 (formerly LSB 16, 31, 33) relate also to the College, Hitchin, and University examinations. The papers listed here probably do not constitute a complete archive of ED's work for the London School Board.

This list reflects the arrangement of the papers as they were originally found.
