Mary Pickford (politician)
Mary Ada Pickford CBE (5 July 1884 – 6 March 1934) was a British politician, industrialist and historian. After working to support the Conservative Party over several years, she was elected as a Member of Parliament in 1931, and specialised in Indian issues; she also used her knowledge of the factory system gained while working as an inspector during the First World War to speak about employment issues. Pickford supported her constituency through the depression of the 1930s but died suddenly of pneumonia at the age of 49.
==Family==
Pickford was the daughter of William Pickford who was then a leading barrister 〔Michael Stenton and Stephen Lees, "Who's Who of British MPs", vol. III (Harvester Press, 1979), p. 282.〕 on the Northern circuit. William Pickford went on to rise through the profession of law, becoming a Queen's Counsel in 1893, a Recorder from 1901 and a Judge of the High Court of Justice in 1907. In 1914 he became a Lord Justice of Appeal and President of the Probate, Divorce and Admiralty Division from 1918. William Pickford received a peerage as Baron Sterndale in November 1918 (from which Mary Pickford received the title 'the Honourable') and he served as Master of the Rolls from 1919 until his death in 1923. Her mother Alice (née Brooke), died only two months after her birth.〔The Complete Peerage vol XIII (St Catherine Press, 1940), p. 289.〕
