Cranston's biog. of HPB (p. 359) quotes George Russell:

"It is paying a poor compliment to men like Yeats, Maeterlinck,
and others, to men like Sir William Crookes, the greatest chemist
of modern times, who was a member of her society..."

Sounds like Y.  and M.  (says Russell) were not members of the TS
-- but I'm pretty sure Yeats *was*.
