| Description |
Within the nurse Ripley postcard album there is a small number of personal snapshots. This is one of two identified as being taken in Rouen, November 1914. It is captioned on the reverse "White, Lear, Todd, Finlow. FFNC, Rouen Nov 1914". Note that there are five faces but only four names, so is it safe to assume one of them is Margaret Ripley? From other photos I am about to upload I believe she's the one in the middle. FFNC in this case must stand for French Flag Nursing Corps. This unit was set up in 1914 to provide certified British nurses (we know that Margaret Ripley had long worked at Guy's) for French military hospitals - you can read much more at www.scarletfinders.co.uk/167.html Additionally, in the British Journal of Nursing, 30 Jan 1915 there is an article about the FFNC which states "Misses Colchester, Lear, Ripley, Todd and Finlow, who are busy at Dunkirk" - see rcnarchive.rcn.org.uk/data/VOLUME054-1915/page090-volume5... See more in my Snapshots of the Past set. |
