Title: Netley Military Cemetery
Post by: julieg on Monday 09 April 12 12:42 BST (UK)

Hello all, if anyone wants a look up on a burial for the cemetery or a photograph of a grave, please get in touch. I am also looking for stories and memories of Netley Hospital. Do you have an ancestor or relative that was at the hospital that you would be willing to share information about with me? Just a few lines would be fantastic. I have a web site that is on going about Netley. Please take a look if you have the time.

Thank you
Julie

If you have a photo of his grave it would save me a visit.

Hi Julie,

I do a lot of military transcribing and am always on the lookout for these types of stories, and as I was born and bred in Southampton and several of my relatives still live there I came across this 25 minute film of patients from WW1 being treated for mental trauma,

it can be downloaded and saved, I thought you might find it of interest.
