Susanna Isherwood was my great-grandmother. I was told she was one of only three women collecting signatures on petitions for women's suffrage in South Canterbury. This is her name on sheet 186, with no further address than "Sheffield". I know she lived in Burwood at some point and is buried there. There is another Isherwood signature later on - Mrs J - with an address in Sydenham. My great-grandfather was John, so I wonder if she signed twice.... Just a thought!
