            <text>Mary and her sister Annie were early subscribers to the Birmingham Women's Suffrage Society and founded a Berkswell Branch in 1907 of which Mary was honorary secretary and her sister treasurer. However, by 1908 the two joined the WSPU. This would explain why Mary refused to give the required information on her census form in April 1911 or 'resisted' like many other WSPU members taking part in the suffrage census boycott. The WSPU were committed to attaining Votes for Women using a variety of means including breaking the law often in high profile and headline grabbing ways which became increasingly violent. </text>
