Photos of WW1 convalescing wounded soldiers, unnamed
« on: Saturday 12 January 13 11:10 GMT (UK) »
The Shepreth Memory Preservation Society, (Shepreth in Cambridgeshire), http://www.oldshep.co.uk/ has posted many photographs of wounded WW1 soldiers who were convalescing in the village.  Photos also include some nurses.  Click on 'Gallery' for the pictures.

Unfortunately no names but if you know that a relative did spend time there and you have some idea of what they looked like you might be lucky and find an photo of them.
