Emily Beatrix Coursolles Jones (1893–1966)

15 April 1893 EBCJ was born at 6 St John's Park, Blackheath (that is London), the youngest in a family of eight children.

By 8 May 1917 EBCJ's first slim volume of poetry was Windows, issued jointly with Christopher Jonson.

By 19 November 1920 The year before her marriage, EBCJ published her first novel, Quiet Interior, which Katherine Mansfield welcomed as "remarkably well constructed" for a debut.

EBCJ had many friends among the Bloomsbury group. Virginia Woolf hovered between "liking and disliking", feeling she could never become intimate with 'Topsy' but "welcoming the spruce shining mind."

30 June 1966 EBCJ died of a stroke in Newbury, at Newbury District Hospital.
