Notes
A photo (see attached image) of Miss Lulu Charlton appeared in the Toronto Star on the front page issue of Wednesday August 9th, 1916. It was captioned as follows (there appears to be a typo with her middle initial):
MISS LULU H. CHARLTON DECORATED.
Three Canadian nurses, whose work in the field has won the Royal Red Cross, are shown here leaving Buckingham Palace, London, after the receipt of the decoration. They are Nurse Andrews, Nurse Lulu H. Charlton, a graduate of the Western Hospital, Toronto, and Nurse Holmes.
