Ruth Elizabeth Proctor
« on: Monday 09 May 16 06:26 BST (UK) »
Good morning, am trying to find out what became of Dr Proctor after 1918.  She is another of my Scottish Women's Hospital lady's. I found out she was born in Huntley in 1887, father was named as Charles. Worked and studied in London and joined www1 in 1915. Really just wondering when she died and if she married. 

regards

Alan
