Rev Goodenough of St Peter's was present at numerous Warwickshire CUWFA meetings in 1911. The CUWFA formed in 1908 to work peacefully and constitutionally for ‘the removal of the sex disqualification from the franchise’ by bringing Conservative and Unionist’s together. He also belonged to the Warwickshire Yeomanry HQ staff and is pictured below in 1914 with Major Robert Airth Richardson, a local supporter of women's suffrage. Initailly, the Rev. appeared to be against female suffrage but was close friends with the president of the CUWFA Lady Willoughby de Brooke and her husband. His position seems to have altered overtime, but he left the parish shortly afterwards.
