Maybanke Anderson

[1] Twelve years later in September 1867, Maybanke married Edmund Kay Wolstenholme, a timber merchant.

[2] After the divorce, she was supported financially by her brother, the renowned engineer Norman Selfe, with whom she would later campaign for education reform.

The Union was a program to promote induction by organising small study groups in rural areas.

The paper ran for 18 months, drawing women's attention to suffrage issues at the national and international level.

[7] The WSL's attempts to have suffrage implemented by the New South Wales government were not fruitful; however, in 1897, Maybanke decided to petition the 1897 Federal Convention in Adelaide.

Thus, the women from South and Western Australia who already had the vote could not have it taken from them, and if there was suffrage at the federal level, it would flow down to the states.

They travelled and worked together on voluntary projects, including campaigning to have women stand for local government.
