Dame Margery Irene Corbett Ashby, DBE (19 April 1882 – 15 May 1981) was a British suffragist, Liberal politician, feminist and internationalist. ==Background== She was born at Danehill, East Sussex, the daughter of Charles Corbett a barrister who was sometime Liberal MP for East Grinstead and Marie Corbett herself a Liberal feminist and local councillor in Uckfield. Margery was educated at home. Her German governess was the feminist polymath Lina Eckenstein. Eckenstein was to become her friend and assisted with her work.〔Sybil Oldfield, ‘Eckenstein, Lina Dorina Johanna (1857–1931)’, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004; online edn, Sept 2014 (accessed 1 Oct 2015 )〕 Though she passed her Classics exam at Newnham College, Cambridge University refused to grant her a degree because she was female. She married lawyer Brian Ashby in 1910. Their only child, a son, Michael Ashby, was born in 1914. He was a neurologist who gave evidence as an expert witness at the 1957 trial of suspected serial killer John Bodkin Adams.〔Cullen, Pamela V., ''A Stranger in Blood: The Case Files on Dr John Bodkin Adams'', London, Elliott & Thompson, 2006, ISBN 1-904027-19-9〕
