Stopes was later sent to the North London Collegiate School, where she was a close friend of Olga Fröbe-Kapteyn.

Stopes resigned her lectureship at the University College of London at the end of 1920 to concentrate on the clinic and three months later she and Roe opened the Mothers ' Clinic at 61, Marlborough Road, Holloway, North London on 17 March 1921.

In 1917, before he'd met Marie Stopes, Humphrey Roe offered to endow a birth control clinic attached to St Mary's Hospital in Manchester.

Some time around the start of the divorce proceedings, Stopes began to write a book about how she thought a marriage should work.

Stopes showed her what she had written and sought her advice regarding a chapter on contraception for her book.

On 26 March 1918, the day Married Love was first published, Stopes was to her publisher's dismay visiting Humphrey Roe, who had just returned from World War I with a broken ankle after his plane had crashed.

Less than two months later they were married and Stopes had her first opportunity to practise what she preached in her book.

There was a conflict between Stopes and the doctors over the method of birth — she was not allowed to give birth on her knees — and, when the baby came, it was stillborn.

Stopes and her fellow family planning pioneers around the globe, like Dora Russell, played a major role in breaking down taboos about sex and increasing knowledge, pleasure and improved reproductive health.

The book attacked Stopes over her advocacy of the cervical cap, describing the cap as " the most harmful method contraception of which I have had experience " associating her birth control campaign with a writer convicted of obscenity for publishing on birth control 45 years earlier.

In 1924 the 43-year-old Marie Stopes gave birth to her only son, Harry.

Stopes knew many famous people of her age.

Stopes was strongly against the termination of a pregnancy once it had started: her clinics did not offer the possibility during her life.

* When Stopes discovered that a certain William Carpenter displayed her name on a birth control and abortion clinic he ran, she took steps to have him arrested and imprisoned.

* When it came to her notice that one of Avro Manhattan's woman friends had had an abortion, Stopes accused him of " murdering " the child.

Stopes, who was ever ready to promote her writings, sent a copy of her Love Songs for Young Lovers to Adolf Hitler with the following cover letter:

Stopes had a serious relationship mainly through correspondence with Japanese botanist Kenjiro Fujii, whom she met at the University of Munich in 1904 whilst researching her Ph. D.

After Harry married Mary, who was myopic, Stopes cut him out of her will, settling on the eugenics argument that prospective grandchildren might inherit the condition to justify her resentment.

Stopes died at her home in Dorking, Surrey, UK from breast cancer.

In 1923 Marie Stopes bought the Old Lighthouse on the Isle of Portland, Dorset as an escape from the difficult climate of London during her court case against H. G.

The success of Married Love had stimulated the need for a follow-up, which Stopes provided in the form of the already written Wise Parenthood: a Book for Married People, a manual on birth control, published later that year.

Stopes was now pregnant and a month overdue she entered a nursing home on 16 July 1919.

When Stopes had sufficiently recovered she returned to work in 1920, engaged in public speaking, responding to letters seeking advice on marriage, sex and birth control.

The modern organisation that bears Marie Stopes ' name was established a year later as an international non-governmental organisation ( NGO ) working on sexual and reproductive health.

The court case began on 21 February 1923 ; it was highly acrimonious ; and the jury found in favor of Stopes, answering the judge's four questions:

In an age when there was a piece of legislation on the books called The Mental Deficiency Act 1913, which described not only people it categorized as idiots and imbeciles, but also those who were " moral defectives " and " feeble-minded ", Stopes, mentioning " the inferior, the depraved, and the feeble-minded ", advocated " the sterilisation of those totally unfit for parenthood be made an immediate possibility, indeed made compulsory.

Embedded between the attacks on Bertrand Russell, Marie Stopes, Vita Sackville-West, Virginia Woolf and a host of other Bloomsbury's and Georgians are classically refined objections to the prevailing philosophy of scepticism, mounted like pearls of wisdom in the basest of metal.

In 1920 she proposed opening a clinic in London, which spurred Stopes to act more constructively, though Sanger's plan never materialized.

It was a moral victory for Stopes, as the press saw it and she appealed.

In 1935 Stopes attended the International Congress for Population Science in Berlin, held in the second year of Hitler's rule.

At its peak of popularity eugenics was supported by a wide variety of prominent people, including Winston Churchill, Margaret Sanger, Marie Stopes, H. G. Wells, Theodore Roosevelt, George Bernard Shaw, John Maynard Keynes, John Harvey Kellogg, Linus Pauling and Sidney Webb.

Eugenics was a concept adhered to by many thinkers in the 1910s, 1920s, and 1930s, such as Margaret Sanger, Marie Stopes, H. G. Wells, Woodrow Wilson, Theodore Roosevelt, Emile Zola, George Bernard Shaw, John Maynard Keynes, John Harvey Kellogg, Linus Pauling and Sidney Webb.

* Marie Stopes ( 1880 – 1958 ), family planning pioneer, lived in the town.

His daughter Mary Eyre Wallis later married Harry Stopes-Roe, a son of Marie Stopes.

Marie Carmichael Stopes ( 15 October 1880 – 2 October 1958 ) was a British author, palaeobotanist, campaigner for women's rights and pioneer in the field of birth control.

Stopes edited the newsletter Birth Control News which gave explicit practical advice.

Marie was born in Edinburgh, the daughter of Henry Stopes, a brewer, engineer, architect and palaeontologist and the Shakespeare scholar and women's rights campaigner Charlotte Carmichael Stopes.

Following this, Stopes earned a D. Sc.

In 1910 Stopes was commissioned to date a geological structure in New Brunswick, Canada, known as the Fern Ledges, due to a heated debate concerning the age of the Ledges.

On 11 May 1913, Stopes filed for divorce, citing that the marriage had never been consummated.

The book was an instant success, requiring five editions in the first year and elevating Stopes to a national figure.
