I have not heard of any women writers in tamil in the pre-independence days...say prior to 1940s. Have any of u read novels/articles by them ?
Most of the women writers seem to be after 1960s only..

  That was very interesting. Intend digging up these. And probably 'interrogate' by relatives about them !
  
  Please do send any more names u remember or get to know. Any sources to get more info too would be useful.
  
  Thanks a lot
