Biographies

WILLIAMS, SUSANNAH JANE (1875-1942), classical scholar and educationist, was born on 15 September 1875 at Castlemaine, Victoria, second daughter of Edward David Williams, a grocer from Wales who later entered the Legislative Assembly, and his native-born wife Jane, née Jones. Having attended (Sir) James McCay's Castlemaine Grammar School, Susie was a resident at Trinity College Hostel, University of Melbourne (B.A., 1897); she was Annie Grice scholar (1894-95) and gained first-class honours in classics and comparative philology. In England, at Newnham College, Cambridge (1897-1900), she produced brilliant work, but completed the classical tripos with an upper second; during one vacation she had toured Greece and Asia Minor and in 1897-98 read archaeology at the University of London.
