    Thank you for posting the images from the the Grace Waters fonds, particularly those by E. R. Owens. Some very candid photos of hospital life during WWI.

    A number of them are of the photos are of the No. 15 Canadian General Hospital in Clivedon, though are referred to by various names in the photo descriptions.

    I was researching a nursing sister who died there at the end of WWI, so had to bone up on my military hospital history and thought I would pass on this additional information about the “Clivedon hospital” for others. (The source information is below):

    “No. 15 Canadian General Hospital, Duchess of Connaught’s Red Cross Hospital, Taplow (Clivedon)

    - Offer by Major and Mrs. Waldorf Astor of use of buildings at Clivedon for a hospital accepted in November 1914.
    - Designated as the Duchess of Connaught’s Red Cross Hospital on 16 December 1914.
    - Authorization published in General Order 103a of 15 August 1915.
    - Equipment supplied by Canadian Red Cross, maintained by War Office, staff supplied by Canadian Army Medical Corps.
    - Redesignated as No. 15 Canadian General Hospital on 10 September 1917.
    - Closed 15 September 1919.
    - Disbanded by General Order 211 of 15 November 1920.
    - Published Stand Easy, 30 June 1917 -7 October 1918, and Chronicles of Clivedon.”
