John and Maria Pattle Jackson. She was the

leader Lady Henry Somerset.

women's supplement to a clerical journal, The Guardian in

film producer best known as the author of the
Harry Potter fantasy series. The books have
gained worldwide attention, won multiple awards,

57. J.K. ROWLING
Rowling was working as a researcher and
bilingual secretary for Amnesty International when
she conceived the idea for the Harry Potter series
while on a delayed train from Manchester to
London in 1990. The seven-year period that
followed saw the death of her mother, birth of her
first child, divorce from her first husband and
relative poverty until she finished the first novel in
the series, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's
Stone, in 1997.

58. J.K. ROWLING
There were six sequels, the last, Harry Potter and
the Deathly Hallows, in 2007. Since then,
Rowling has written four books for adult
readers: The Casual Vacancy (2012) and—
under the pseudonym Robert Galbraith—the
crime fiction novels The Cuckoo's Calling
(2013), The Silkworm (2014) and Career of Evil
(2015).

with sales in excess of £238M. The 2016 Sunday
Times Rich List estimated Rowling's fortune at
£600 million, ranking her as the joint 197th richest
person in the UK.

63. J.K. ROWLING
Rowling was born to Peter James Rowling, a
Rolls-Royce aircraft engineer, and Anne Rowling
(née Volant), a science technician, on 31 July
1965 in Yate, Gloucestershire, England, 10 miles
(16 km) northeast of Bristol. Her parents first met
on a train departing from King's Cross Station
bound for Arbroath in 1964. They married on 14
March 1965. One of her maternal great-
grandfathers, Dugald Campbell, was Scottish,
born in Lamlash on the Isle of Arran.

64. J.K. ROWLING
Her mother's paternal grandfather, Louis Volant,
was French, and was awarded the Croix de
Guerre for exceptional bravery in defending the
village of Courcelles-le-Comte during the First
World War. Rowling originally believed he had
won the Légion d'honneur during the war, as
she said when she received it herself in 2009.
She later discovered the truth when featured in
an episode of the UK genealogy series Who Do
You Think You Are?, in which she found out it
was a different Louis Volant who won the Legion
of Honour.

65. J.K. ROWLING
When she heard his story of bravery and
discovered the croix de guerre was for
"ordinary" soldiers like her grandfather, who had
been a waiter, she stated the croix de guerre
was "better" to her than the Legion of Honour.

PANKHURST
GOULDEN
(NÉE GOULDEN; 15 JULY 1858 – 14 JUNE 1928)
Olga Ros Gambín
1ºA ESO

70. SHE WAS A BRITISH POLITICAL ACTIVIST AND LEADER OF THE
BRITISH SUFFRAGETTE MOVEMENT WHO HELPED WOMEN WIN
THE RIGHT TO VOTE.

71. BIRTH
EMMELINE PANKHURST WAS BORN ON 15 JULY 1858 IN
THE MANCHESTER SUBURB OF MOSS SIDE. ALTHOUGH
HER BIRTH CERTIFICATE STATES OTHERWISE, SHE
BELIEVED THAT HER BIRTHDAY WAS A DAY EARLIER, ON
BASTILLE DAY - 14 JULY. MOST BIOGRAPHIES,
INCLUDING THOSE WRITTEN BY HER DAUGHTERS, REPEAT
THIS CLAIM.

72. FAMILY
THE FAMILY INTO WHICH SHE WAS BORN HAD BEEN
STEEPED IN POLITICAL AGITATION FOR GENERATIONS.
HER MOTHER, SOPHIA JANE CRAINE, WAS A MANX
WOMAN FROM THE ISLE OF MAN AND COUNTED AMONG
HER ANCESTORS MEN CHARGED WITH SOCIAL UNREST
AND SLANDER. IN 1881 THE ISLE OF MAN WAS THE
FIRST COUNTRY TO GRANT WOMEN THE RIGHT TO VOTE
IN NATIONAL ELECTIONS. HER FATHER, ROBERT
GOULDEN, CAME FROM A MODEST MANCHESTER
MERCHANT FAMILY WITH ITS OWN BACKGROUND OF
POLITICAL ACTIVITY. HIS MOTHER WORKED WITH THE
ANTI-CORN LAW LEAGUE, AND HIS FATHER WAS
PRESENT AT THE PETERLOO MASSACRE, WHEN CAVALRY
CHARGED AND BROKE UP A CROWD DEMANDING
PARLIAMENTARY REFORM.

73. CHILHOOD• PANKHURST BEGAN TO READ BOOKS WHEN SHE WAS VERY YOUNG
– ACCORDING TO ONE SOURCE, AT THE AGE OF THREE. SHE READ
THE ODYSSEY AT THE AGE OF NINE AND ENJOYED THE WORKS OF
JOHN BUNYAN, ESPECIALLY HIS 1678 STORY THE PILGRIM'S
PROGRESS. ANOTHER OF HER FAVOURITE BOOKS WAS THOMAS
CARLYLE'S THREE-VOLUME TREATISE THE FRENCH REVOLUTION:
A HISTORY; SHE LATER SAID THE WORK "REMAINED ALL MY LIFE A
SOURCE OF INSPIRATION.“

74. • DESPITE HER AVID CONSUMPTION OF BOOKS, HOWEVER,
EMMELINE WAS NOT GIVEN THE EDUCATIONAL ADVANTAGES
ENJOYED BY HER BROTHERS. THEIR PARENTS BELIEVED THAT THE
GIRLS NEEDED MOST TO LEARN THE ART OF "MAKING HOME
ATTRACTIVE" AND OTHER SKILLS DESIRED BY POTENTIAL
HUSBANDS. THE GOULDENS DELIBERATED CAREFULLY ABOUT
FUTURE PLANS FOR THEIR SONS' EDUCATION, BUT THEY
EXPECTED THEIR DAUGHTERS TO MARRY YOUNG AND AVOID PAID
WORK. ALTHOUGH THEY SUPPORTED WOMEN'S SUFFRAGE AND
THE GENERAL ADVANCEMENT OF WOMEN IN SOCIETY, THE
GOULDENS BELIEVED THEIR DAUGHTERS INCAPABLE OF THE
GOALS OF THEIR MALE PEERS. FEIGNING SLEEP ONE EVENING AS
HER FATHER CAME INTO HER BEDROOM, EMMELINE GOULDEN
HEARD HIM PAUSE AND SAY TO HIMSELF: "WHAT A PITY SHE
WASN'T BORN A LAD."

75. MARRIAGE AND
FAMILY• IN THE AUTUMN OF 1878, AT THE AGE OF 20, EMMELINE GOULDEN
MET AND BEGAN A COURTSHIP WITH RICHARD PANKHURST, A
BARRISTER WHO HAD ADVOCATED WOMEN'S SUFFRAGE – AND OTHER
CAUSES, INCLUDING FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND EDUCATION REFORM
– FOR YEARS. RICHARD, 44 YEARS OLD WHEN THEY MET, HAD
EARLIER RESOLVED TO REMAIN A BACHELOR TO BETTER SERVE THE
PUBLIC. THEIR MUTUAL AFFECTION WAS POWERFUL, BUT THE
COUPLE'S HAPPINESS WAS DIMINISHED BY THE DEATH OF HIS MOTHER
THE FOLLOWING YEAR. SOPHIA JANE GOULDEN CHASTISED HER
DAUGHTER FOR "THROWING HERSELF" AT RICHARD AND URGED HER
WITHOUT SUCCESS TO EXHIBIT MORE ALOOFNESS. EMMELINE
SUGGESTED TO RICHARD THAT THEY AVOID THE LEGAL FORMALITIES
OF MARRIAGE BY ENTERING INTO A FREE UNION; HE OBJECTED ON
THE GROUNDS THAT SHE WOULD BE EXCLUDED FROM POLITICAL LIFE
AS AN UNMARRIED WOMAN. HE NOTED THAT HIS COLLEAGUE
ELIZABETH WOLSTENHOLME ELMY HAD FACED SOCIAL
CONDEMNATION BEFORE SHE FORMALISED HER MARRIAGE TO BEN
ELMY. EMMELINE GOULDEN AGREED, AND THEY WERE WED IN ST
LUKE'S CHURCH, PENDLETON ON 18 DECEMBER 1879.

76. • ALTHOUGH SHE GAVE BIRTH TO FIVE CHILDREN IN TEN YEARS, BOTH SHE AND RICHARD
BELIEVED THAT SHE SHOULD NOT BE "A HOUSEHOLD MACHINE." THUS A SERVANT WAS HIRED
TO HELP WITH THE CHILDREN AS PANKHURST INVOLVED HERSELF WITH THE WOMEN'S
SUFFRAGE SOCIETY. THEIR DAUGHTER CHRISTABEL WAS BORN ON 22 SEPTEMBER 1880,
LESS THAN A YEAR AFTER THE WEDDING. PANKHURST GAVE BIRTH TO ANOTHER DAUGHTER,
ESTELLE SYLVIA, IN 1882 AND THEIR SON FRANCIS HENRY, NICKNAMED FRANK, IN 1884. IN
1885 THE PANKHURSTS MOVED TO CHORLTON-ON-MEDLOCK, AND THEIR DAUGHTER ADELA
WAS BORN.
• IN 1888 FRANCIS DEVELOPED DIPHTHERIA AND DIED ON 11 SEPTEMBER. OVERWHELMED
WITH GRIEF, PANKHURST COMMISSIONED TWO PORTRAITS OF THE DEAD BOY BUT WAS UNABLE
TO LOOK AT THEM AND HID THEM IN A BEDROOM CUPBOARD. THE FAMILY CONCLUDED THAT A
FAULTY DRAINAGE SYSTEM AT THE BACK OF THEIR HOUSE HAD CAUSED THEIR SON'S ILLNESS.
SHE WAS SOON PREGNANT ONCE MORE AND DECLARED THAT THE CHILD WAS "FRANK COMING
AGAIN."[32] SHE GAVE BIRTH TO A SON ON 7 JULY 1889 AND NAMED HIM HENRY FRANCIS IN
HONOUR OF HIS DECEASED BROTHER.
• PANKHURST MADE THEIR RUSSELL SQUARE HOME INTO A CENTRE FOR GRIEVING SISTERS,
ATTRACTING ACTIVISTS OF MANY TYPES. SHE TOOK PLEASURE IN DECORATING THE HOUSE –
ESPECIALLY WITH FURNISHINGS FROM ASIA – AND CLOTHING THE FAMILY IN TASTEFUL
APPAREL. HER DAUGHTER SYLVIA LATER WROTE: "BEAUTY AND APPROPRIATENESS IN HER
DRESS AND HOUSEHOLD APPOINTMENTS SEEMED TO HER AT ALL TIMES AN INDISPENSABLE
SETTING TO PUBLIC WORK."
• WOMEN'S FRANCHISE LEAGUE.

77. RICHARD'S DEATH
DURING THE STRUGGLE AT BOGGART HOLE CLOUGH,
RICHARD PANKHURST BEGAN TO EXPERIENCE SEVERE
STOMACH PAINS. HE HAD DEVELOPED A GASTRIC ULCER, AND
HIS HEALTH DETERIORATED IN 1897. THE FAMILY MOVED
BRIEFLY TO MOBBERLEY, WITH THE HOPE THAT COUNTRY AIR
WOULD HELP HIS CONDITION. HE SOON FELT WELL AGAIN, AND
THE FAMILY RETURNED TO MANCHESTER IN THE AUTUMN. IN
THE SUMMER OF 1898 HE SUFFERED A SUDDEN RELAPSE.
PANKHURST HAD TAKEN THEIR OLDEST DAUGHTER CHRISTABEL
TO CORSIER, SWITZERLAND, TO VISIT HER OLD FRIEND
NOÉMIE. A TELEGRAM ARRIVED FROM RICHARD, READING: "I
AM NOT WELL. PLEASE COME HOME, MY LOVE."[47] LEAVING
CHRISTABEL WITH NOÉMIE, PANKHURST RETURNED
IMMEDIATELY TO ENGLAND. ON 5 JULY, WHILE ON A TRAIN
FROM LONDON TO MANCHESTER, SHE NOTICED A NEWSPAPER
ANNOUNCING THE DEATH OF RICHARD PANKHURST.

78. ILLNESS AND DEATH
AS HER HEALTH WENT DOWNHILL, EMMELINE
PANKHURST MOVED INTO A NURSING HOME IN
HAMPSTEAD. SHE REQUESTED THAT SHE BE TREATED BY
THE DOCTOR WHO ATTENDED TO HER DURING HER
HUNGER STRIKES. HIS USE OF THE STOMACH PUMP HAD
HELPED HER FEEL BETTER WHILE IN PRISON; HER
NURSES WERE SURE THAT THE SHOCK OF SUCH
TREATMENT WOULD SEVERELY WOUND HER, BUT
CHRISTABEL FELT OBLIGATED TO CARRY OUT HER
MOTHER'S REQUEST. BEFORE THE PROCEDURE COULD
BE CARRIED OUT, HOWEVER, SHE FELL INTO A CRITICAL
CONDITION FROM WHICH NONE EXPECTED HER TO
RECOVER. ON THURSDAY 14 JUNE 1928 PANKHURST
DIED, AT THE AGE OF 69.[120] SHE WAS INTERRED IN
BROMPTON CEMETERY IN LONDON.
