Ella M. Judge and Theosophy

In a conversation I had some years ago with some long time members in the ULT,
I was told that Ella Judge apparently did not share her husband's enthusiasm
for theosophy and at times vigorously opposed it. This made for an unhappy
relationship and obviously created a heavy karmic burden for WQJ. In addition
to the misery caused by this rift in belief and outlook, they lost a child.
Sometime after Judge's demise, I was told that his widowed wife did a 180
degree on her feelings about theosophy. In fact she fully embraced it. The
reason for this about face is unclear. However, she became something of a
dynamic force within the movement, going about the country giving lectures at
various lodges until her death in 1931. I think she aligned herself with the
ULT but I'm not sure.
Could someone give me more information on this?
