Sometimes (but not always) remembered in the telling of A J Herbertson's tremendous contribution to the GA was that of his wife Fanny. Frances Dorothea Herbertson is described below:
Her story, and those of other female geographers are told in this book here.
She was a teacher herself, at Cheltenham Ladies College, and there is also a connection with Patrick Geddes, who will also be featured on the blog in a future post.
There is a link to Robert Neal Rudmose Brown, who featured recently on the blog.
See the A J Herbertson post on the blog for more on the work that he completed with his wife, including jointly authored books.
