Bessie Cope was born in Liverpool in Lancashire in 1869 (some accounts give an alternative birth year of 1880).

Her father died when she was a teenager and her mother remarried a journalist who later became the proprietor of the Liverpool Courier.

In 1892 Bessie married Gerald Kyffin-Taylor, who later sat in Parliament before resigning his seat at the outbreak of World War I to serve in the Army, where he rose to the rank of Brigadier-General.

After their marriage they settled in Heswall, a town in the Wirral in Cheshire.

Little else is known of her works or life except for her obituary in the Daily Mail dated 29th August 1922 which records that she was an enthusiastic sportswoman, especially in angling and motoring and had a reputation in literary circles for the writing of various articles and short stories. The later were primarily in the Weird and Supernatural genres.
