War Graves Memorials
This War Graves Memorials to Nurses page is dedicated to those brave nurses, nursing sisters and assistants who gave their lives in the line of duty whilst caring for sick, wounded and injured soldiers.

War Graves Photo Below are pictures of their graves and QARANC.co.uk would like to further honour their sacrifice by requesting any additional information about any nurse on this page and those who should be added. For example any info about their nursing skills, examples of dedication, photograph, etc would be gratefully received for inclusion onto this page. Please contact us if you can help. Thank you.


Nurses Memorial


Wimereux Cemetery Wimereux War Grave Cemetery in France was located near military hospitals during the Great War. There are several members of the Queen Alexandra's Imperial Military Nursing Service and Royal Army Medical Corps buried there. The Commonwealth War Graves are located in a separate area of the civilian graves.

WimereuxCemetery Unlike other war grave memorials the headstones lies flat against the ground because of the soil in the graveyard is sandy and does not support the weight of the uprights headstone. There are 2845 war graves from the First World War and 14 war graves from the Second World War. Wimereux War Grave Cemetery is now called the Wimereux Communal Cemetery.




As you can see from the postcard photos below of Wimereux cemetery, taken soon after burials, there were originally crosses above each grave until the earth mounds settled. The left hand side of the photograph shows the first grave with a dark cross as reading Sister but sadly the surname is not readable.
WWI Cemetery


Commonwealth War Graves


Sister Wilson

Sister Wilson GraveOne war grave of a nurse buried at Wimereux Cemetery is Sister Myrtle Wilson of the Queen Alexandra's Imperial Military Nursing Service (QAIMNS). Sister Wilson died on the 23 December 1915 aged 38 years. She was the daughter of Andrew Wilson and Catherine Wilson of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Sister Wilson left Queensland to join the service in April 1915. Her headstone reads Sister M.E. Wilson Q.A Imp. Nursing Sce. 23 Dec 1915 Queensland Australia Behold I Come Quickly



Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae Grave

Lieutenant Colonel McCrae Grave

The grave of Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae can be found at Wimereux Cemetery.

Lt Col McCrae wrote the war poem In Flanders Fields. In the cemetery is also a memorial stone seat with lines from In Flanders Fields poem which reads:






We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved, and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.


Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae served in the Canadian Army Medical Corps as a physician. His health deteriorated during the war, especially after a gas attack in Flanders. He suffered from asthma and after a bad bout of flu he developed a lung infection and then a brain haemorrhage from which he died on the 28 January 1918 aged 45 years.


There are some of the artefacts of Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae on display at Eilean Donan Castle in the Highlands of Scotland. In the grounds is a replica memorial of that erected in his memory at Wimereux Cemetery at Flanders. There is more written about this with photographs at our other website Aboutaberdeen.com on the Eilean Donan Castle Ghosts page.

Lt Col McCrae Memorial


In Flanders Fields Music

Canadian composer, singer and songwriter Anthony Hutchcroft has written a moving tribute to Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae called In Flanders Fields Music. His song is a musical interpretation of Lt Col John McCrae's poem from the Great War.

PTSD assistance dog Lynne book


My PTSD assistance dog, Lynne, and I have written a book about how she helps me with my military Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, anxiety, and depression. I talk about my time in the QAs and the coping strategies I now use to be in my best health.

Along the way, I have had help from various military charities, such as Help for Heroes and The Not Forgotten Association and royalties from this book will go to them and other charities like Bravehound, who paired me with my four-legged best friend.

I talk openly about the death of my son by suicide and the help I got from psychotherapy and counselling and grief charities like The Compassionate Friends.

The author, Damien Lewis, said of Lynne:

"A powerful account of what one dog means to one man on his road to recovery. Both heart-warming and life-affirming. Bravo Chris and Lynne. Bravo Bravehound."

Nelly Spindler

Belgium War Grave Staff Nurse Nelly Spindler was a member of the QAIMNS during the Great War. Nelly Spindler nursed with the British Expeditionary Forces (BEF) in the 44th Casualty Clearing Station (CCS) Brandhoek. This area was shelled on the 21 August 1917 and despite this the QAs and doctors of the RAMC continued to care for their patients. Sadly one shell landed on the tented hospital and wounded Nelly Spindler. Her colleagues tried in vain to treat her abdominal wound but she died within minutes.

The 44th CCS moved that day to Lijssenthoek where Nelly Spindler was buried the next day. The British Commonwealth Grave Lijssenthoek in Belgium contains 10750 burials which includes 9901 Commonwealth graves. More can be read about Nelly Spindler at www.wakefieldfhs.org.uk/Nelly Spindler.htm

Sadly many QA's were lost at sea during the two World Wars and though they have no war grave maintained by the CWGC they are remembered in a variety of ways. For example the name of Sister Winnie Harrison is on the Brookwood Memorial. She died on the Hospital Carrier
St David during World War Two. There is more written about the sinking of the Hospital Carrier St David on the Hospital Ships page.

Matron Martha S. Farley

Below are two photos of the grave of Matron Martha S. Farley, RRC, QAIMNS at Mount Jerome Cemetery, Harold's Cross, Dublin. Her grave is located in Section 411, plot 281. Matron Farley is listed in the Commonwealth War Graves Commission website as an official WW1 death but seems to have been buried privately and does not have a CWGC headstone.

Sister Sarah Alice Fisher Ingram

Sister Sarah Alice Fisher Ingram is interred at Mount Jerome Cemetery, Harold's Cross, Dublin. She is not listed in the CWGC website. Sister Sarah Alice Fisher Ingram served in Royal Victoria Military Hospital Netley in WW1, and died on 26 December 1915. Her death is not recorded in the Irish Registers, so it is thought that she died in Netley or nearby.

Sister Sarah Elizabeth Dixon

The Northumberland church of South Charlton, just off the A1 north of Alnwick, has a memorial tablet to Sarah Elizabeth Dixon, Sister QAIMNS-R who was lost at sea on 24 January 1942 by enemy action. There is a photo at northernvicar.wordpress.com

Sister Dixon was serving in the Mediterranean on the Hospital Ship St David. While transporting wounded soldiers from the Anzio beachhead at night, in company with two other hospital ships, the St David was deliberately attacked and sunk by a German bomber. The captain, 12 crew, 22 Royal Army Medical Corps personnel (including 2 reserve QAIMNS nursing sisters, Sarah Dixon and Winnie Harrison) and 22 of the wounded patients lost their lives. When the attack took place, all three ships were fully illuminated as per the Geneva Convention which, in this instance at least, just seems to have served to make them an easy target.

Their main focus was getting the wounded safely off the ship, rather than their own safety, which seems to by why equal numbers of medical staff and patients died.

There is more info on the St David sinking, as well as the names and circumstances of 108 more QAIMNS deaths at sea, at www.briancrabbmaritimebooks.co.uk/beyond-the-call-of-duty, and in the book, Beyond the Call of Duty (The Loss of British Commonwealth Mercantile and Service Women At Sea During the Second World War) by Brian James Crabb.

With thanks to Art Vine.

New post apocalyptic military survival thriller

Former Royal Air Force Regiment Gunner Jason Harper witnesses a foreign jet fly over his Aberdeenshire home. It is spilling a strange yellow smoke. Minutes later, his wife, Pippa, telephones him, shouting that she needs him. They then get cut off. He sets straight out, unprepared for the nightmare that unfolds during his journey. Everyone seems to want to kill him.

Along the way, he pairs up with fellow survivor Imogen. But she enjoys killing the living dead far too much. Will she kill Jason in her blood thirst? Or will she hinder his journey through this zombie filled dystopian landscape to find his pregnant wife?

The Fence is the first in this series of post-apocalyptic military survival thrillers from the torturous mind of former British army nurse, now horror and science fiction novel writer, C.G. Buswell.
