Sister Elizabeth m. William Shackfield Newton - not the one who is all over Google as going to Australia, but a younger man b. Wales who was a medical practitioner.  Did her brother-in-law encourage Mabel's studies, I wonder?

Really helpful thank you everyone. Two questions when was she imprisoned and how did she die?

This recent event may be of interest - related to her WWI service in field hospitals (treating the french as she wasn't allowed to work in British hospitals)
