Frances Booth was a Sister at Royal Navy Hospital, Chatham. There is some confusion with her Christian name, the headstone is mis-spelt.
Probate record: Name: Frances Norah Palmer Booth Probate Date: 28 Mar 1947 Registry: London, England Death Date: 11 Apr 1946 Death Place: Berkshire, Berks, England Well never been into his database before Francis N. P. Booth in the UK, British Army and Navy Birth, Marriage and Death Records, 1730-1960 It is difficult to read her cause of death, perhaps those with better eyes and software can decode. Also not sure where or what 'Guy Hoop' is Name: Francis N. P. Booth Event: Death Birth Date: abt 1907 Death Date: 11 Apr 1946 Death Age: 39 Death Place: Guy Hoop Ship: Hospital Staff TD
* It is not clear if the arrows mean, either, Frances Booth died of burns [received] in a flying accident or uraemia; which is a raised level in the blood of urea and other nitrogenous waste compounds that are normally eliminated by the kidneys.' I think the place of death is Guys Hospital (Hosp); it looks like it just says 'Guy Hosp'.
Hi Steve I do not think she died of burns from a flying accident as the arrow next to her name/line seems to go to the line below which I cannot clearly read - something like uraemia cystisis and also what might be hepititus ?? Good thinking re Guys Hosp TD
