Mary Hughes Green
« on: Friday 23 January 15 12:05 GMT (UK) »
Hello, trying to confirm this lady lived or was born in the Inverness area, She served as a housekeeper in the Scottish Womens Hospitals during ww1, so would of been around 25-55 in 1915. She is mentioned in a couple of books as being from Inverness and am looking to confirm that story. Be great if anyone can help.

Don't think Parkstone is a prison Alan  :-[   think I'm getting muddled with Parkhurst which is on Isle of White .
