She began studying at Queen Charlotte's Hospital, London but her medical career was ended by her father's sudden death in 1869. For the rest of her life she was involved in social work, including the pioneering development of reading facilities for the blind in north Wales. Another of Henry Ellis' daughters, Grace Ellis, was Assistant Librarian at the University of Wales, Bangor.
