Verification

edit

I am concerned that the citation to The Times is dated six days before Bertha Clayden's promotion. Can anyone verify this cite and perhaps provide a page number? How much biographical information does it provide? --Bejnar (talk) 14:49, 8 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

"Inspector Clayden, Inspector of Women Police at Bow Street, has been promoted to sub-divisional inspector, as from April 30, and will go to Scotland Yard as assistant to Superintendent Dorothy Peto, Chief of Women Police." MaybeItsBecauseImALondoner (talk) 17:24, 11 December 2020 (UTC)Reply

Does anyone have access to "'Lady Cops' and 'Decoy Doras': Gender, Surveillance and the Construction of Urban Knowledge" published in The London Journal in 2002? Or to "Care or Control? The Metropolitan Women Police and Child Welfare, 1919–1969" published in The Historical Journal in 2003? Both are by L.A. Jackson and purport to contain information about Bertha Clayden. --Bejnar (talk) 14:49, 8 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
