Ethel Small (née Ethel Dallas Horstmann) in 1921 became the second woman elected to the Toronto city council. She was the younger daughter of (1846–1894) and Harriett Kelley Horstmann. The Horstmann family were wealthy Philadelphia manufacturers and merchants of military garment trimmings (passementerie) and military regalia. Ethel Small's interest in politics may derive from her mother's side of the family. Her maternal grandfather William D. Kelley was a founder of the U.S. Republican Party and a lifelong advocate of civil rights, social reform, and labor protection.
