            <text>Leonora was married to University College science Professor, Philip Shaw. She joined the Nottingham WSPU branch in 1908 and may have been a founding member. She also acted as some time Treasurer and President and was also a member of the Church League for Women’s Suffrage. She was absent from her home on census night (see image) suggesting that she was evading as part of the WSPU census boycott. Later that year, she was present at the violent struggle that took place during the Black Friday demonstration in Parliament Square in November 1911.
