Claude Hinscliff

Reverend Claude Hinscliff was a British suffragist.[1] Hinscliff studied for his licentiate in theology at Durham University as a member of Hatfield College, graduating in 1896.[2] He founded the Anglican Church League for Women's Suffrage in 1909, and was its secretary for a long time.[1][3]

He and the vicar C. Baumgarten, also part of the Church League for Women's Suffrage, conducted the funeral service of Emily Davison in St. George's, Bloomsbury.[4] From 1914 he worked in Europe and served as a chaplain in Bucharest from 1921-1924.[5]

His name and picture (and those of 58 other women's suffrage supporters) are on the plinth of the statue of Millicent Fawcett in Parliament Square, London, unveiled in 2018.[6][7][8]
