In NYT of August 24, 1916, query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9E05E6D71E3FE233A... a Miss D. Cockett from Cotuit, Mass. is mentioned as a competitor in the 38th National Archery Association tournament. Tournament results are in American archery; a vade mecum of the art of shooting with a long bow (1917) page 94 archive.org/stream/americanarcheryv00elme#page/94/mode/2u...

American Archery refers to her only as "Dr. Cockett." A Corbis Images photo caption calls her "Dr. M.S. Cockett." www.corbisimages.com/Search#cat=14,23,24,19,22&q=cock...

In The Sunday Oregonian. (Portland, Ore.) 1881-current, October 08, 1916, SECTION SIX, Image 75 she is named Dr. M. S. Crockett (see photo below right), but according to all other sources (also FACTS AND FICTION OF SPORTS OF ALL SORTS, SPORTING LIFE, September 2, 1916), her name is Cockett (Miss Cockett, Cotuit, Mass. in this publication).
Art Siegel said:
I think she is Dr. Margaret (sometimes Marguerite) S. Cockett (1878-1954). This item from the Cooperstown, N.Y. Otsego Farmer & Republican of Sept. 9, 1921 reports that Dr. Margaret S. Crockett, "an archer of no little skill one of the proprietors of Au Petit Chamouix, the delightful coffee house and antique shop on Lake Street [Cooperstown], recently attended the annual tournament of the National Archery Association in Boston" and was elected vice-president. fultonhistory.com/Newspapers%20Disk3/Cooperstown%20NY%20O... Here she is pictured doing war work in France archive.org/stream/observationsinfr00smit#page/12/mode/2u... She was also known as Marguerite Standish Cockett, M.D., author, artist and WWI ambulance driver and relief worker. books.google.com/books?id=UJhx8H8XLnQC&pg=PA163&l... photos xdl.drexelmed.edu/item.php?object_id=2438&search_para... xdl.drexelmed.edu/item.php?object_id=2182&search_para... www.google.com/search?tbm=bks&hl=en&q=%22margueri... cdm16037.contentdm.oclc.org/cdm/compoundobject/collection...

All: Thanks for digging so deep for information on Dr. Cockett. We will correct her name and add more information about this interesting woman to the record!

That's where my archery is going wrong - I'm not wearing the right sort of hat!

Pixel Wrangler said:
Dorothy D. Smith (1903-1995) of Newton Centre, Massachusetts, began her archery competitions at the age of nine. The daughter of Mr. & Mrs. Louis C. Smith, both of whom were notable archers, Dorothy was the National Archery Association Women's Champion in 1919, 1921, 1922, 1924, 1925, 1926 and 1931, and was an eleven-time winner of the Eastern Archery Association title. She later married Henry S.C. Cummings and was inducted into the Archery Hall of Fame. – [1] [2] [3]
