    Could be Kathleen Mary Drew (1901-1957), listed in Ogilvie and Harvey, The Biographical Dictionary of Women in Science as "British botanist....Drew was a distinguished worker in the field of red algae. She spent most of her academic life in the department of cryptogamic botany at the University of Manchester....she spent two years in the United States, working at the University of California. During this time, she produced systematic studies and her first substantial monograph....She was one of the founders of the British Phycological Society and was its first president."

    I agree with pennylrichardsca. I found an article about her --> link
  • Smithsonian Institution said:
    We think pennylrichardsca identified her correctly. Images of Kathleen Mary Drew-Baker on other websites look like a match. Thanks for your input and all your great comments to our “Women in Science” set!

    Claude is my great-great uncle. I have posted a brief biography of him over at my website. I would love to be contacted to find some details and sources on some of the information that differ from our information (enlistment date, double vs single amputation, etc.): blackboardbattlefield.com/2012/04/09/private-claude-h-cox... Thanks for sharing this. It is a great tribute.
