Heather Johnson

HEATHER JOHNSON has an interest in local and inter/national history. She researches her own genealogy and enjoys enlightening others to theirs. Since 2013, she has researched the British WW1 Home Hospitals set up close to her East Anglia home. Skills honed in these endeavours proved invaluable when a proud Canadian, Nancy MacFarlane, asked “who put the poppy on your lapel?” She identified “The Poppy Lady of France” and it is Heather’s mission to bring her out of the shadows.
