==Life==
Clemence was born in Bromsgrove, Worcestershire.〔Elizabeth Crawford, 'Housman, Clemence Annie (1861–1955)', ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', Oxford University Press, 2004 (accessed 7 Feb 2011 )〕 She went to the South London School of Technical Art in 1883 where she learned, among other things, wood engraving.〔Elizabeth Crawford (2002) ''The Women's Suffrage Movement: A Reference Guide 1866–1928'', page 424. Routledge. ISBN 0203031091〕 She worked for a time as an engraver for illustrated papers such as ''The Graphic''.〔 In 1908 she subscribed to the Women's Social and Political Union, and in 1909 she was a co-founder, with her brother Laurence Housman, of the Suffrage Atelier.〔 She made banners for the suffrage movement between 1908 and 1914.〔
In 1910 she became a member of the committee of the Women's Tax Resistance League.〔 She was arrested on 30 September 1911 for non-payment of taxes and she was sent to Holloway Prison, but she was released after just one week following protests and demonstrations by her supporters.〔
She lived with her brother Laurence for much of her life. After World War I, they lived in a cottage in the village of Ashley in Hampshire, and then, in 1924, moved to Street, Somerset.〔A. T. Lloyd, J. E. S. Brooks, (1996), ''The History of New Milton and its Surrounding Area, Centenary Edition'', page 66〕
