The last I heard, the society was going to digitise, index and publish these records themselves but that was some years ago and I'm not sure where they're at with this plan. When I visted their old location at Grosvenor Crescent, many years ago, they had filing cabinets full of index cards which gave summaries of service for nurses but I don't recall there being detailed personnel files. In any event, have a look at their website and drop them a line as appropriate: http://www.redcross.org.uk/About-us/Who-we-are/Museum-and-archives<br /><br />PaulPaul Nixonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12354531380984476532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1944079581687608453.post-4575791031657059692015-01-06T01:32:55.169+00:002015-01-06T01:32:55.169+00:00Hi and firstly what an enormous amount of work yo...Hi and firstly what an enormous amount of work you have done. I am currently working on my family lines, and have come to Territorial Forces Nurses in World War I and if I may ask a question, why is there almost no information for this service. I have from Find My Past her basic information, but not where she was based in particular. I should have thought that with the centenary, that nurses were just as important as everyone else, and their contribution recognised. I am in Australia, and familiar with the excellent records we have here, but from my own experience trying to get information from UK records is very challenging! <br />Kris Herron<br />Kris Herronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12567035909454921699noreply@blogger.com
