John Cowell-Stepney did not attend the Basle Congress of the International Workingmen's Association edit
The reference cited in support of Sir John attending the Basle Congress of the International Workingmen's Association simply states that "Cowell Stepney" was in attendance. I propose that this was, in fact, William Frederick Cowell Stepney (the eldest son of Sir John). William Frederick Cowell Stepney was a leading member of the IWMA (and served as its Treasurer).
Indeed, I question whether John Cowell-Stepney was the publisher of the Social Economist. It was his son, William, who contributed to the monthly magazine. William is a more likely candidate for having set up this publishing venture.
