  • Born Catherine Mumford, Ashbourne, Derbyshire; January 17, 1829. Her parents were John Mumford, a Coach Builder, and Sarah Milward. Her birthplace at 13 Sturston Road carries a commemorative plaque, and there is a memorial in the Ashboune Recreation Ground. When she was a child the family moved to Boston, Lincolnshire and later they lived in Brixton, London. Catherine was a devout Christian and by the age of twelve she had read the Bible eight times. She had a social conscience from an early age. On one occasion she protested to the local policeman that he had been too rough on a drunken man he had arrested and frog-marched to the local lock-up. Catherine did not enjoy good health. At the age of fourteen she developed spinal curvature and four years later, incipient tuberculosis. It was while she was ill in bed that she began writing articles for magazines warning of the dangers of drinking alcohol. Catherine was a member of the local Band of Hope and a supporter of the national Temperance Society.
