Alice Mary CULLINAN [c.1894-????]

DoB from John Black's list, which gives her occupation in 1941 as "Nursing Sister", and gives her name as "A M Cullanan".

A search for Cullinan at HKGRO returns several results:

• 1925. The "Medical Report" says A M Cullinan was appointed as a Nursing Sister during the year.
• 1927. The "Civil Establishments of Hongkong, for the Year 1927" lists her on page J110 as a Sister in the Medical Department, named "Alica Mary Cullinan", first appointed on 25th July 1925. It notes she'd been away from the Colony for two months during the year. Two other nursing sisters are shown with the same first date of appointment, Martha Jane Warbrick and Margaret Alexandra Wilson.
• Later copies of Civil Establishments ... give the same name in 1929, but from 1930 on it is spelled Alice Mary Cullinan.
• The 1934 Medical Report notes that she "acted as Home Sister, Kowloon Hospital, from 5th May."
• The 1936 Medical Report notes that she "acted as Assistant Matron, Civil Hospital, from 21st April."
• The 1937 Medical Report notes her promotion to Senior Sister.
• The Civil Establishments ... for 1938 lists her as a "Matron, Grade II", appointed on 30th Oct 1937.

She stayed in Hong Kong and was interned in Stanley Camp. Philip Cracknell found this mention of her from shortly after liberation in 1945:

“Mrs. Kathleen Madigan, of 16 Cambridge terrace, Kingswood, re-ceived a letter yesterday from hersister. Miss Alicia M. Cullinan, who has been interned in Stanley camp since the fall of Hongkong. It was the first notification she had received of her sister's release,and It was written from Stanley. Miss Cullinan was awarded the Royal Red Cross in the first European war when she was matron of a Red Cross hospital in England. She has been in Hongkong for 13 years, and for some time was lecturer in dietetics at the university there. Miss Culllnan was visiting relatives in Adelaide in 1940 when she was recalled by the Hongkong Government.” (Source: The Advertiser (Adelaide)  21/9/45)
