Archive Research, Photography & Digitisation I offer archive research and document photography at The National Archives and the Imperial War Museum, alongside digitisation of privately held material. As a military historian, I regularly work …

As my maternity leave comes to an end, a reminder that I’m now offering an archive photography service primarily for museums/archives in the south east England (IWM, TNA, BL etc etc) to help make ends meet. Details below:

Just one week left to take part in our short survey on veterinary practice preparedness for natural disasters.
It only takes 3 minutes, and you could win one of ten £30 Amazon vouchers as a thank you.
We’d really appreciate your support!

I’m just a humble volunteer but thank you.
Some of things the chaps were suffering from are probably best kept secret 😉
Seriously though, some of mental health issues are difficult and sometimes men with obvious learning difficulties were serving

hmm, I don’t know. I think it’s actually more 100 now? All to do with the potential for people still being alive I think, plus GDPR? And these are personal medical records… some quite er … ‘interesting’ … so definitely confidential

It was sooo cold in the warehouse though 12degrees 🥶
I’m still trying to get warm at home.
Some of the records are fascinating, and tragic sometimes, we (volunteers) keep getting distracted reading instead of filing 😄

This is a very good example of how complex and huge the challenge of digitising records is. There are more than 5 million record cards, and over 1100 boxes of registers..😳
Most of these records will not be accessible for some years, mostly because of the ‘100 year rule’.

Museum of Military Medicine.More work this week on the (medical) files from the Central Health Records Library, previously ‘stored’ at a facility in Shoeburyness. 
Before digitisation they have to be transferred from very old unsuitable filing boxes into archive boxes.

Help please from #suffrage historians.🙏After arrest in France in 1915, the journalist Dorothy Lawrence describes meeting ‘Mrs. Pankhurst’ & ‘another prominent suffragette’ on the Boulogne ferry. This was on/soon after 25 September. Emmeline was touring Wales but did she make a quick trip to Paris?
