New Names in the Archive: Unveiling Mildmay's History One Photo At a Time

Updated: Mar 20


Mildmay staff photo, with Fanny Louise Legg highlighted, circa 1966


We're thrilled to share another update from the archive! Thanks to the fantastic research of Andy "K" into his family history, we've been able to identify a second person in a photograph believed to have been taken around 1966.


This photo, which also includes Ethel Mary Edge (identified by her Granddaughter, Molly), also shows Fanny Louise Legg.


Through his dedication, Andy has unearthed details about his "honorary Aunt" Fanny, who served as a cook at Mildmay for many years. Andy's research is ongoing, so we look forward to finding out more.


We've had a great response from our supporters to our request for stories, which exemplifies our archive project's ongoing power. We're deeply grateful to everyone who has shared information about their relatives who graced the halls of Mildmay. Each detail you contribute adds an invaluable piece to our historical nursing register and enriches the tapestry of "Stories" on our website.


We're piecing together the remarkable legacy of Mildmay - and will be posting another update soon. Thank you for being a part of this journey!
