Family and early lifeCatherine Black was born in 1878 in Ardeen House, Ramelton, County Donegal in Ardeen House on the outskirts of the town.[1][2] Her father was a linen draper with a prosperous shop in the town.[1] Black went to Royal London Hospital to train as a nurse, and it was whilst there that she became friends with Edith Cavell.[2] She died on 7 October 1949 in London.[3] WWI serviceBlack was working as a private nurse in Royal London Hospital when the outbreak of World War I was declared.[6] She joined Queen Alexandra's Imperial Military Nursing Service, first serving in Cambridge Hospital in Aldershot and then the No. 7 Hospital in St Omer where she treated soldiers suffering from shell shock.[4] Black was then sent as a replacement for a nurse who was killed at a casualty clearing station at Poperinghe, Belgium, and subsequently went on to serve at the 41st Stationary Hospital at Sailly-Lorette, nursing soldiers with self-inflicted wounds. She was moved to the No. 5 General Hospital in Rouen and various other clearing stations until the end of the war.[4] King George VSister Black was the private nurse of King George V from 1928 until his death in 1936.[5] She began her service in late 1928 following a serious bout of illness for the King.[6] Black was made permanent in 1930; she was given her own chambers within Buckingham Palace.[7] She was known as "Blackie" to the members of the royal family. Black objected to the actions of the King's doctor Lord Dawson of Penn in administering a lethal combination of morphine and cocaine to hasten the King's death.[12][8][9] The King's final words, "God damn you!", were addressed to Black as she gave him a sedative on the night before his death.[10] Black wrote of her life in the Palace in her autobiography King's Nurse, Beggar's Nurse, in which she also recounted her childhood in Donegal,[11] nursing in Australia, as well as her service in WWI.[5] In reflecting on the experiences of nurses in the war, Black recounted "you went into [a casualty-clearing station] young and light-hearted. You came out older than any span of years could make you."[12] References1. ^{{cite web|title=Nurse Catherine Black writes about her childhood in Ramelton in the late 1800's From her book 'King's Nurse, Beggar's Nurse'|url=http://www.rameltontidytowns.com/history.html|website=Ramelton Tidy Towns|accessdate=20 February 2015}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Black, Catherine}}2. ^{{cite book|last1=Newman|first1=Vivien|title=We Also Served: The Forgotten Women of the First World War|date=2014|publisher=Pen and Sword|isbn=9781473845275|pages=159–160}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|title=1916 Education Study Pack|url=http://www.donegalcoco.ie/media/donegalcountyc/archives/pdfs/1916/englishstudypacks/1916%20Education%20Study%20Pack_3.pdf|website=Donegal County Council|accessdate=18 February 2016}} 4. ^1 2 {{cite book|last1=Cook|first1=Bernard A.|title=Women and War: A Historical Encyclopedia from Antiquity to the Present|date=2006|publisher=ABC-CLIO|location=California|isbn=9781851097708|pages=65–66}} 5. ^1 2 {{cite web|title=Catherine Black|url=http://www.ramelton.net/History/CatherineBlack.htm|website=Ramelton|accessdate=20 February 2015}} 6. ^{{cite book|last1=Edwards|first1=Anne|title=Matriarch: Queen Mary and the House of Windsor|date=2014|publisher=Rowman & Littlefield|location=London|isbn=9781442236561}} 7. ^{{cite web|title=History|url=http://www.ardeenhouse.com/History.htm|website=Ardeen House|accessdate=20 February 2015}} 8. ^{{citation|last=Ramsay|first=J.
