Local Newspapers

SHC has microfilm holdings of local newspapers that are useful to researchers. These report meetings of both the suffrage and anti-suffrage organisations as well as the women’s suffrage campaign of militancy. The letters to the editors can be particularly interesting as they reflect public attitudes to the movement. Titles include:

 Surrey Advertiser 1864 – to date  Surrey Comet 1854 - 1981  Surrey Herald 1895 – 2010  Surrey and Hants News 1864 -1944  Surrey Mirror 1879 – 1970  Sussex Agricultural Express 1837 – 1903  Staines and Egham News 1864 – 1944  Windsor and Eton Express 1896 – 1897  Woking News and Mail 1894 - 2009

For example, specific reports include a report of a suffrage meeting in Godalming, 23 May 1908 in Surrey Advertiser, and 30 May 1908 Surrey Advertiser, whilst the National League for Opposing Women’s Suffrage features in the Surrey Advertiser, 8 June 1912.
