Where should I look for information about suffragettes in prison?

Whether you are researching a particular suffragette or the imprisonment of suffragettes in general you should first read all or some of the following:

Purvis, June, ‘The Prison Experience of the Suffragettes in Edwardian Britain’, Women’s History Review, 4 (1) (1995), pp. 103-33

Leneman, Leah A Guid cause: the women’s suffrage movement in Scotland (Mercat Press, 1991)

King, Elspeth, The Hidden History of Glasgow’s Women: The Thenew Factor (Mainstream, 1993)

If you are researching an individual suffragette prisoner go to the FAQ Where can I find information about someone imprisoned in Scotland? but see also a register of suffragettes received into prison in Scotland, 1909-14, among the Home and Health Department records of the National Records of Scotland (HH12/22).

If you are researching the treatment of suffragette prisoners in general, there are criminal case files among the Home and Health Department records in the National Records of Scotland (HH16/36-47). It may also be worth looking through the catalogues to the Criminal Justice and Procedure files, 1888-1995 (HH60).
