Notes

"Miss. Clover Walker of North Burnaby, went overseas as a nursing sister in May, 1917. She sailed on the Sonausonia which was torpedoed off the coast of Ireland. She was picked up with others by a minesweeper and landed in Ireland. She was at Bramshott training camp six months and then crossed to Boulogne and St. Omer. She was at Etaples No. 1, Canadian General Hospital when she was shelled. She was blown through a wall and badly wounded besides shell shocked, and was a patient at Le Treport for three months afterwards, and then sent to convalesce in England. Before returning to Canada she was married to Captain Chutter."
