Hall, Emily ___ 1819-1901 ___ British ___ n/a

BIOGRAPHICAL SUMMARY
Emily was born into a well-off family living on the island of Jersey but by her teens the family had moved to West Wickham in Kent. She lived a genteel life, and never married, though she did have a long friendship with an older man called Thomas Shore. With her sister Ellen, Emily travelled often. In 1873, they bought a house in Algiers in which to spend the winter. Towards the end of her life she became involved in the Croydon Co-operative Society and with the Suffragette movement.

IMPORTANT NOTES AND CAUTIONS:
1) The first line of basic information may be incomplete in several ways: some historical figures have different names (titles, pen-names); their birth and death dates may be unknown or uncertain (g - guess, c - circa); similarly, their occupations may be unknown, or they may have had other jobs; and, for early diarists, I've used 'British' a bit too freely. 2) The biographical summary may not be accurate. It was compiled quickly from various sources, mostly on the internet, and the facts were not checked anywhere near as rigorously as they would have been if they'd been intended for publication in a printed form. 3) The journal dates and descriptors (which are in no particular order) must be treated with caution: since I have not examined the diaries myself, the descriptors are only guesses based on bibliographies, anthologies and internet biographies. 4) For the biography and etext links, I have ignored any sites with charges, and I have avoided, wherever possible, those with pop-ups or too much advertising. I have limited myself to providing three etext links where there is some variety between them. 5) For the original manuscript links, I have limited myself to providing a maximum of two (although, for a few diarists, their original diaries are held in more than two places). 6) I have provided the titles - chosen randomly - for up to three printed editions of the diaries.
