We have uploaded to the World War One Roll of Honour a biography of Kate Anstey of an unknown sub-branch (because she was abandoned at a very young age, likely as an infant, and brought up by others), who signed up with the Women’s Royal Naval Service in 1918 and was attached to the ship ‘HMS Wildfire‘ (a base ship in Sheerness).
Anybody who has information they would like to add to this biography, or knows Kate’s ‘Anstey’ origins, please contact us at research@theansteystory.com.
Anybody who has researched their Anstey ancestors’ wartime heroics and wishes for their findings to be uploaded to the Anstey story project website, feel free to contact us.
