Edith Picton-Turbervill, O.B.E. (13 June 1872 – 31 August 1960) was an English social reformer, writer and Labour Party politician. From 1929 to 1931 she served as a Member of Parliament (MP) for The Wrekin in Shropshire. ==Early life==
Edith Picton-Turbervill was born at Lower House, Fownhope, Herefordshire on 13 June 1872, the twin daughter of John Picton Warlow, then a captain in the Madras Staff Corps, and his wife Eleanor (née Temple) daughter of Sir Grenville Temple, Bt, of Stowe. She changed her name to Picton-Turbervill at the same time as her father, when in 1891 he inherited the Turbervill estate of Ewenny Priory in Glamorgan. The estate was over 3,000 acres and her father was a mine royalty owner and a Conservative; he was a JP and a member of the Penybont Rural District Council. Edith was educated at the Royal School, Bath. Both her family environment and her school encouraged her in the belief that life was essentially something active, preferably on the behalf of others; she was also deeply religious.
