The 1901 Jersey census shows Nellie Florence Ruby Rault
as living at Gordon House, St Aubin's Road, Jersey. She
was born in 1898, and was the fourth daughter of Ann Elizabeth
Rault.
In about 1917, she joined the WAAC, which
then became the QMAAC, and went to work at Haynes Park
RE Signals Depot in Bedfordshire. She lived in the camp
and did domestic work, and was described as being a cheerful,
respectable girl.

However, she met an untimely end on 9th May 1919, when
she was murdered in woods near the camp. She is buried
in Haynes (St Mary's) churchyard, and is commemorated
on the CWGC website here.
