Send a message to the person who requested a photo of the grave monument of Betty Raag with the following comment:
I am an archaeologist interested in First World War Orkney, working on a project called Remembering Wartime Westray which will examine the militarisation of the Home Fronts of Westray / Papa Westray during the FWW. There will be a poster and leaflet produced for the end of May with workshops to gather local memories and document objects from the period over the summer.For this, I am interested because some places say the SS Birka was torpedoed and others say it ran aground. Also, I presume Betty Raag is a female, which is interesting in itself.Cheers
