Title

Anna Irene-Stamers

Description

After researching the Nursing Sister Anna-Irene Stamers, one was able to get a small idea of what her life was like during the war. While navigating her documents, we came across the Casualty Form which lists everywhere that she had been in service and a timeline of events, including hospitalizations up until her death. This document is interesting as it demonstrates how long she dedicated her life to helping soldiers during the war. From these documents, one can interpret that Anna was in generally in good health aside from contracting an ear infection. Anna continued to serve as a Nursing Sister until June 27th, 1918 when she drowned on the Llandovery Castle Ship.
