In one sense there is plenty available about Margaret's personal life, in particular in writings by Angela V. John. In another sense, there is certainly plenty about the dysfunctional marriage, and autobiography by Margaret, and comments from the son Richard, but it is hard to see in that why her views turned out the way they did - progressive, artistic, feminist - given a High Church vicarage background.
It is not hard to read between the lines and see that the Rev. Jones her father took on an industrialising parish that few others wanted. The notional income may have gone on curates and church repairs. The Tractarians emphasised parish work through exemplars. Margaret became a Liberal Party supporter. But I'd say she was as much a radical as Henry in some ways (not on the Boer War, though). And the parish work presumably was a serious background.
