This Photo Archive
consists of a small autograph album (6.5" by 5.25") kept by Constance
(Connie) Philips as a memento of her time serving as a nurse during
World War One.
The majority of the photos and items are from 1915, when she served as a nurse in France and Britain.
The album and all
photographs, postcards, and other ephemera contained in the album belong
to Karin Armstrong and may not be copied or republished without her written
permission. The images will be published on Olive Tree Genealogy with
permission.
Each
image has been designated an "R" for Recto or a "V" for Verso plus an
album page number. Recto is the right-hand side page of a bound book
while Verso is the left-hand side page.
I
will be posting the entire album and my additional research on the
individuals identified in Connie's album over the coming months so
please check back frequently to view these historic photos. The easiest
way to see what has been published is to click on the topic "Nursing Sister WW1 Photos" in the vertical menu bar on the right side of your screen. You can also click on that phrase at the bottom of this post.
Autograph.
