Other Suffrage Activities: Esther and Elizabeth's coffee room was originally founded in the 1830s by radical relative William Vialls and Frances Place, to increase the public respectability shown to artisans and craftsmen, who were welcomed there as 'working' men. Coffee shops were often frequented only by middle and upper class patrons.
