• I have boldly moved the article to Alice Cameron, per WP:COMMONNAME.
• There is an apparent inconsistency on the timing of her work in Lincoln , possibly the role was part time from 1921 and full time from 1924 until 1939. Rewley House Papers page 79 says The Oxford Tutorial Classes Committee having been asked in 1911 by the appropriate District of the W.E.A. for its assistance in develop-ing class-work at Lincoln in co-operation with the newly formed W.E.A. branch there, Miss Helen Stocks of Lady Margaret Hall was invited to pioneer in that area on a part-time basis, and when she resigned in 1921, the Oxford Committee selected Miss Cameron of Somerville College as her successor. and Social Service Quarterly page 17 says In 1924 she was ap-pointed tutor to the Lincoln tutorial classes under the Oxford Extra-Mural Delegacy and began a career there which lasted for the next fifteen years.
