Sibyl was also one of the 19 women signatories of the Letter of 19, a 1904 petition for admission of women to Fellowship in the Chemical Society which stated: "We, the undersigned, representing women engaged in chemical work in this country desire to lay before you an appeal for the admission of women to Fellowship in the Chemical Society."(p. 64-65).[1]

Biography

Sibyl was born on May 27, 1876. She went to the Dulwich High School for Girls in West Dulwich, an area in south London, England. She continued her education and obtained a degree in Chemistry from the Royal Holloway College in 1900.[1]

Starting at the London School of Medicine for Women as a Demonstrator in Chemistry in 1901, she was promoted to joint-in-charge of the Chemistry Department in 1904 and became head in 1935.[2] During this she progressed to the rank of Lecturer, and stayed at the school through to her retirement in 1942.[1]

In an obituary written by her Phyllis Sanderson, her successor, Sibyl was described as "an ardent feminist and willingly sacrificed her own career as a chemist for the cause most dear to her heart, the training of women doctors at Hunter Street, the only training ground in Medicine open to women in England at that time" (p. 161)[1]

Sibyl authored and co-authored at least 12 research papers[1] with her research focusing around the composition and secretion of human milk (see publications). Including two publications with other signatory's on the Letter of 19, Margaret Seward and Ida Smedley Maclean.[2]
