About Marguerite Mongenast-Servais
- Marguerite Mongenast-Servais (1885-1925), was a Luxembourgian women's rights activist.
- She was married to the engineer Paul Mongenast and engaged in several progressive associations, among them the anti-monarchist « Action républicaine ».
- She was also a member of the women's rights organization « Organisation pour les Intérêts de la femme ».
- There was never any organized women suffrage movement in Luxembourg: women suffrage was introduced in 1919 without any debate, as a part of the project of the new democratic constitution, and the women's rights organizations mainly focused on educational opportunities.
- However, in 1917-1919, Marguerite Thomas-Clement belonged to the few who spoke in favor of women suffrage in public debates through articles in the press.
