- Eileen M. Sheehan, Voluntary Aid Detachment (VAD) nurse, was born 1897 as eldest daughter of RMF Captain DD Sheehan MP. She joined the VAD organisation in 1916 and served as nurse and ambulance driver on the front. Attached to the 14th Military and General Hospital at Wimereux, north east France, she was disabled in a German bombing raid and hospitalised in Boulogne. Traumatized by militant intimidations experienced at the end of the war in her Cork family home, she spent her last years in an Epson, Surrey sanatorium (still convinced “they are outside waiting to get me”).
