The History of Nursing Forum's revised version of "Tracing Nurses”, is now online. Whether you are interested in family or local history, biographies, or academic research this guide helps you to locate records and find nurses. The guide includes well known sources such as the Census and the Register of Nurses, but also highlights others to be found in local and county archives. As well as the established sources it highlights some newly catalogued or indexed resources of whose existence experienced researchers may not be aware.
The forum hopes that this guide will support you in your efforts to explore the history of nursing or the life and career of a particular individual. We would love to hear about the stories you find, so please share them with us. We would also like feedback on the guide – do you find it helpful? is there anything confusing or missing? or anything you think we could improve? Please email honf@rcn.org.uk us your comments.
