Black Notley Hospital, staff information 1935 -1942
« on: Wednesday 15 April 20 08:09 BST (UK) »
Greetings from a first timer. Please forgive errors.
My parents, brother and myself migrated to Western Australia in 1966.I have been sorting through my deceased mother's personal photos. In them I have found 2 small personal photo booklets of hers apparently taken by her covering her nursing years at Black Notley Hospital which I believe was in Essex or nearby. 1 contains a photo of herself. Her name at that time was Barbara Brimley. One photo includes her sister Phyllis Brimley (also deceased) who also nursed there. Dr Cohen features also.
I have no other relatives I can turn to so wonder if there is anyone that can assist with any images, photos or information regarding my mother at Black Notley Hospital.
I have tried to search other forums without success.
Thanks in anticipation.

Hi Black Russian
Thanks for your quick reply.
I have tried the National Archives but no luck.
I can try Friends of Black Notley Hospital.
Cheers

Welcome from me too!

Doesn't really help much, but there is a mention of Dr and Mrs COHEN of Black Notley Hospital in a newspaper article about the funeral of Dr Burton WOOD. Chelmsford Chronicle, Friday,  Nov. 12, 1943.

Can't see any mention the BRIMLEY girls yet.

You're doing great!
It looks like some people on the thread that Dyingout linked for you could be quite valuable for your research. If you post  a comment on that thread they will receive an email notification and quite probably respond.  :)

Hi again Maddy
Being really new at this any help is appreciated.
I have read the link given by Dyingout but that provided nothing new....still searching.
I may expand the search for the Brimley sisters to the Chelmsford area.
Many thanks
