Pollie Westlake Northey
« on: Wednesday 03 February 16 19:52 GMT (UK) »
Hello, another of my nurses am looking for help on. My search on her , has her coming from Cornwall. Born in 1888-89. She does have a striking name.  If its the same person she was a nurse during ww1 at Corsica. What am hunting is a little on her background and what happened to her after the war.  Many thanks Alan

Hi,

There are quite a few entries in the "British Phone Books, 1880-1984" that could be her, all at the same address between 1952 and 1972.

Miss P W NORTHEY  2 St. Clement Vean    Truro  3289

Regards,
Daisy
