She was a Suffragette : http://oldshirburnian.org.uk/sherborne-the-fight-for-womens-suffrage/, as was her daughter, Mildred Ella Guest who married John Delalynde Mansel.
When her marriage to Arthur Edward Guest broke down, she went to live with her father, her husband having kept the children. He refused to let her see them. She met her cousin (later her second husband), Cecil Maurice Chapman, who managed to get the children into a coach and told Adeline Mary to be at a certain London terminus at a certain time on a certain day. To her delight and the children's, they met up. After her first husband's death, Cecil married Adeline and they lived at Roehampton Cottage, Roehampton.
