Elsie Margaret Blackburn-Brown (I think).
And now to Google.
An EMBB was noted for her success at Manchester High School for Girls, for the Joint Matriculation of the Northern Universities - for information see this link.
An EMBB studied at Manchester High School for Girls. She was given a leaving present in 1914, when she left for Bedford College. Link
An EMBB graduated from London University (Bedford College) in 1918 with a BSc INT (Class: II) Link. This is from the Davis Archive, a list of women who graduated in Mathematics from Universities in Britain and Ireland before 1940.
An EMBB died in Blackburn, 18th April, 1979, a spinster. Link
That's sad.
So, I think Elsie Blackburn Brown was born in about 1900, went to high school in Manchester, went to university in London and then became a teacher in Preston. I'm on a mission to find out now, wish me luck!
