Colin posted this picture of MGH in message number 39 in this topic. This confuses me because it bears no resemblance to the buildings built to house the 19th Canadian General Hospital which became the MG Maternity Hospital. Was this an earlier hospital?

Does anyone know where this building fits into the MG story? It stands near an entrance to the Brooklands Hospital and at the edge of the housing development on what was the MGH site. Was it part of MGH?

I sent a reply to this (before the one above) but it hasn't appeared in the thread. Marston Green staff? ....... I haven't been able to track this down yet, but we are still working on it. There's a good thread about MGH that is well worth reading. My understanding is that MGH started out as...

I had this as a direct message, but thought it might be useful to someone reading this thread if I put it here. Hello Pat56, I hope you don't mind me contacting you directly. I have just seen the verses from the autograph book you posted on the forum and my heart missed a beat! I have an...

Hi CHINCH, Staff members at Marston Green? No that's not something I've been able to track down yet, but I'm still working on it. My understanding is that Marston Green Hospital was built during WW2 as the 19th Canadian General Hospital (there's a long thread about MGH, that's well worth...

Few more to follow. Note: May go unnoticed, but bottom left corner of one of the pages mentions 19th Canadian General Hospital!

Words from the wards!! The following pages are photographs of pages from Mary Ellen Cremin's autograph book.

Thank you all, for both your interest in this thread and the help provided. The wartime role of the QM we didn't know about, but now that we do - we have another avenue to explore.

Well that's intriguing! I didn't think it was MG from the pictures I've seen on the MG thread and that's why I have been looking for pictures of Chelmsley Hospital. Must be somewhere else then! If you get chance to look at my Marston Green Nurses thread there are a few more photos, buildings...

Alberta, do you recognise this building as part of CH? I think the external stair/fire escape must be a bit of a give away!

Thank you both. Alberta, I have noticed that you have chipped in with your info about Chelmsley Hospital in several threads, when doing so have you come across any additional detail about the hospital? I don't seem to be able find anything myself.

Hi Lady P, thanks for showing interest. Yes, I do have a thread running in the Hospitals section. The fascinating thing about the photo (for our family) is that we have traced it back to the "New York Daily" newspaper archives, where there is a caption and a date (19/12/1945). I have sent...

Does anyone have pictures of this hospital? Does anyone know if records exist anywhere of nursing staff from the 1940 period? I am trying to trace the working life of my mother and would like to establish if she worked at Marston Green Hospital , Chelmsley Hospital or perhaps both (I believe...

The lady on the right is my mother Mary Ellen Cremin, Marston Green nurse at the time of the photograph 19/12/1945. Can anyone identify the other ladies in the picture? Can anyone help with the story that goes with the picture? Even the slightest scrap of information might help.

Can anyone put me in touch with Mark Linell or crimble? Both have posted in this thread. I would like to get in touch with Mark with regards to my post titled Marston Green Nurses. The email address in his post is not recognised! Thanks
