Hilda Dallas in the context of Women's suffrage in the United Kingdom
A movement to fight for women's right to vote in the United Kingdom finally succeeded through acts of Parliament in 1918 and 1928.
In 1832, the Representation of the People Act (or First Reform Act) had passed into law which extended the franchise to various groups of property owning men, thus legally excluding women.
