Royal Red Cross awards

FindmyPast (www.findmypast.co.uk) has launched a new collection detailing some 8969 Royal Red Cross awards given to nurses treating service personnel between 1883 and 1994. The award was given solely to women until 1976, and from then to both men and women. The announcement is at http://www.findmypast.co.uk/content/news/nurses-may12, with the records themselves included within the Military Nurses 1856-1994 database at www.findmypast.co.uk/search/military/indexes/military-nurses
