Eliza Petten of Flat Islands, and the Women's Patriotic Association



Recently, our office was sent the above photograph from Jason Davis. He writes:
"I just saw your posting on the Women’s Patriotic Association. Attached is a picture of my great-grandmother, Eliza Petten, MBE, wearing the medal presented to her for the work done with the WPA. She was a resident of Flat Islands, Bonavista Bay. Any information you can share on the WPA and her contributions would be great."
Do you know anything about Eliza Petten? Send me an email at dale@heritagenl.ca or leave a comment!
