Fanny and Dora Watson: Two Devoted Volunteers of Quex Park VAD Hospital This evocative photograph captures the determination and dedication of Fanny and Dora Watson, two remarkable women who served at the Quex Park Voluntary Aid Detachment (VAD) Hospital during World War I. The image, taken at the Houghton photographic studio, showcases Fanny on the right, proudly displaying three War Service Bar stripes on her left arm. These stripes indicate that the photograph was taken no earlier than November 1917, signifying Fanny's significant contribution to the war effort. Fanny and Dora, who resided with their mother Catherine in Birchington prior to the war, came from a privileged background with a private income. However, their sense of duty and compassion led them to volunteer at the Quex Park VAD Hospital. Late in 1917, Dora married and became Mrs. D. Danielson, continuing her service at the hospital alongside her husband. The Watson sisters' commitment to their roles was unwavering. Fanny worked an impressive total of 10,898 hours, while Dora Danielson contributed 10,249 hours during their time at the hospital. The Quex Park VAD Hospital, run by Kent/178, the Birchington Detachment, opened on 15 October 1914, and closed on 31 January 1919. The Commandant of the hospital was Hannah Powell-Cotton, wife of Major Percy HG Powell-Cotton of Quex Park, who founded the Powell-Cotton Museum. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the countless individuals who selflessly dedicated their time and energy to the care of wounded soldiers during the First World War. Fanny and Dora Watson's story is a testament to their courage, commitment, and the enduring spirit of volunteerism that defined the war effort.
