NETLEY ABBEY MATTERS!
Royal Victoria Military Hospital aka Netley War Hospital
How to get in touch with me!
For the past 18 months or so, I've been showing here articles and info on events, notices,
obituaries which have happened at Netley War Hospital in a specific month through the years.
The data has changed on or about the 1st of each new month.
Website page analysis shows that these are by and large not being read - folk come on
to this page simply to find out how to get in contact to check if their relative has been at the
Royal Victoria Hospitals, Netley.
So now, it's all change! The monthly articles are gone!
This page tells you how to get in contact with me and is the gateway through which you can read
about the history of the Hospital and the men and women who walked its corridors in its lifetime.

Netley Military Hospital Names' Database
Our Database currently holds details of about 12300 individuals plus all the Hospital Censuses
from 1861 to 1921.
What about the 1939 Register, I hear you ask?
Well, we've got the civilian staff, doctors, nurses, family members but no details of the patients who were
at the Hospital when the Register was recorded there on 29 September 1939.
We've been reliably informed by The National Archives and Google that although their details were taken
by the military authorities at the time, they have not yet been released to the general public.
However, allowing that anyone who was a Patient in the Hospital in 1939 had to be a minimum of 17 years old,
as it is likely they are no longer be with us, we may yet see the details some day soon ...
In the meantime, though, there are other sources, eg newspaper articles, which may have given us
details of folk who were at the Hospital in 1939 and so are already on the database.
The full Database is not accessible on this website. If you think your ancestor may have been at Netley War Hospital, please complete the form above and let me know what details you do have.
I will check our files and let you know what we have on file and do some research in the hope of
finding more. My research is free of charge regardless of whether your relative was at
Netley Hospital or not.
Equally if you already know they were at Netley, let me know so I can add their details to the Database.
To maintain the integrity of the Database, however, I will need to see proof that they were.
