Emmeline Pankhurst was the daughter of Robert Goulden, born in 1858. Her family were very forward thinking and believed that all girls were as good as boys. So Emmeline attended school in her home city of Manchester and went to finishing school in Paris. Soon after her return to Manchester she meet the lawyer and the social reformist, Richard Pankhurst. He was a strong believer of women's rights and committed himself to helping the women's suffrage. Together he and Emmeline work very hard and finally brought about the right for women to vote.
