Sylvia Winthrope Murray (19 August 1875 – 17 January 1955)[1] was a suffragette, the sister of suffragette Eunice Guthrie Murray.[2]
Murray was born in Cardross, one of four children of suffragist Frances and David Murray who was a solicitor. She studied for a BA at Girton College,[3] spent some time as a missionary, and worked in her father's law firm.[2]
She was a friend of Chrystal MacMillan with whom she corresponded,[4] a member of the Women's Freedom League with her mother Frances and her sister Eunice,[5] and a member of the National Union of Women's Suffrage Societies.[2]
She was the author of the 1933 book David Murray: A Bibliographical Memoir (published by Bennett & Thomson),[6] based on a paper which she presented in 1932 to the Glasgow Bibliographical Society[1] about her father's library, which was donated after his death to the University of Glasgow.[7]
