Audrey B. Eversfield was a UK fan and a member of the Cheltenham Group in the late 1950s and early 1960s.
She attended Cytricon III in 1957 and wrote one of only three known conreports of the event for Spasmodic. She had at that point only been in fandom for a few months. She was founding member #43 of the BSFA in 1958, appearing on the first membership list that was published in Vector 2, which she helped to stencil.
Subsequently, she was a fixture of Eastercons and some of the big fan parties involving Cheltenham people. Skyrack 48 (17 December 1962) reported that she had moved to Paris but later said that she still hoped to attend the 1963 Eastercon in Peterborough. She is listed as a member of Loncon II in 1965 when she was resident in France. She seems to disappear from fandom after that.
Geoff Winterman in his recollections of the Cheltenham Circle said:
Audrey Eversfield was Secretary then, always busy making order out of chaos. I think at some point I fell in love with her but she went off to live in Paris! I did give her a ride on my Lambretta though.
