I suppose she might perhaps have done Red Cross VAD work - there is a database but currently it seems down for maintenance - perhaps worth a check in due course. https://www.redcross.org.uk/about-us/our-history/first-world-war-volunteers [Previously I found a relative there who did home knitting for the Red Cross]

I cannot find Esther Margaret Kellingray in TNA (the National Archives), but I guess this is a male relative: https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/C8256699

She occurs in an internet search once as Esther Margaret Killingray - I've tried variant spellings in TNA with no luck.
