Just a small 'bump' in the hope that it helps catch someone's eye.

In hope ...

"Myrtle" on this forum was able to get me many photographs as I believe that she lived near Kensal Green Cemetery and was a regular visitor there. Her health may be an issue but I am sure that if she can, she will. Worth dropping her a message.

Hello Myrtle, Nice to hear from you and that you are still firing on all cylinders. The book is like pushing a stone up a hill using ones nose. It seems never ending. But the good news is that I have reached the S's in the French female casualties. I knew that the French would be hard work as so many of the nurses were nuns, names changed from their birth names and many probably just died of old age rather than through the causes of the War. The next big gathering will be the German female casualties. Anyway, I am pleased that you are still functioning on here and elsewhere. Kind regards, Jim

Hello Jim

You have set yourself an incredible task. Sounds like your research could be published in a number of volumes. Look forward to seeing it in print soon.  
Good luck with it 

Kind regards
