- Description:
- Abstract: This file contains correspondence between British officials regarding the position of Lady Medical Officer for the Government of Bahrain. The correspondence is primarily between Charles Belgrave, Adviser to the Government of Bahrain; the Political Agency in Bahrain; and the Political Residency in Bushire. Much of the correspondence concerns two doctors who held this post, Dr Margaret M McDowall and subsequently, Dr I M A Doeg. On folios 95-99, the file contains a 1945 document entitled 'Notes for Persons Proceeding to Bahrain' that was intended as a brief introduction to the country for recently arrived foreign workers. The document contains information related to Bahrain's political structure, climate, medical facilities, language and food. The file also contains correspondence regarding a doctor named Esther Wingate who was considered as a replacement for Dr Doeg, but not eventually hired.Physical description: Foliation: the main foliation sequence (used for referencing) commences at the front cover with 1, and terminates at the inside back cover with 137; these numbers are written in pencil, are circled, and are located in the top right corner of the recto side of each folio.
