History
Jessie May Chalmers was born on 15 August, 1892 to George, a 'Hoch Broker' (possibly a pawnbroker) who was from Glasgow and his wife Jessie who was from Ireland. At the time of the 1901 Census, the family lived at 13 Hamilton Crescent in Partick. This was still Jessie's address when she enrolled at the Art School in 1916, giving her occupation as 'teacher'. She was an evening student of Drawing and Painting and was assigned to Ann MacBeth's class. Her elder sister, Jeannie, also studied at the Art School.
