4thGordons Posted 4 September , 2008 Share Posted 4 September , 2008 Does anyone have any information on a hospital (possibly for convalescents) at Dinard (Brittany, across estuary from St Malo) during the summer of 1917. Also the woman who ran it? Extract from a letter: "...We met an English girl in charge of the hospital there, who simply took us in hand, introduced us to everyone and made plans for our entertainment. A very clever girl who has done her "bit" if anyone has." Thanks Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmania Posted 4 September , 2008 Share Posted 4 September , 2008 Chris This isn't very specific I'm afraid, but I have come across the following in Dinard and I believe that there were more: Hopital Temporaire No 28, Hotel Royal Annexe de l'Hopital 28 Hopital Complimentaire No 54 Hopital de Casino Anchor Tea Rooms Hotel Windsor Mrs Percy Gore's Hospital Miss Du Cane's Hospital Aled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was with work so I did not have time to look but now I know where they are I will be back to look for Geneva Casstevens' grave. Thanks again Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
