Early life[edit source]

She was born in an aristocratic English/Anglo-Irish family, the fourth daughter of Wilton Allhusen, of Pinhay, Lyme Regis, and his wife Adelaide Vandeleur. Her early life was much as would be expected of a young lady with her family background. On 11 July 1906 she married Eyre Nathanial Massey, son of the fifth Lord Clarina, Lionel Edward Massey. She gave birth to her only child, Erin Moira Massey, on 29 November 1909.

First World War[edit source]

Erin Massey’s life took a dramatic turn with the outbreak of World War I in 1914. Erin and her sister Gladys commandeered one of their father’s Daimler cars and headed over to France with the Red Cross in October 1915. Her daughter Moira was left in the care of her grandparents and aunts at Pinhay. In France, Erin and Gladys organised a series of canteen units for troops and assisted with feeding wounded troops admitted to hospital. Mark Osborne Humphries refers to Massey’s work in his book, A Weary Road: Shell Shock in the Canadian Expeditionary Force, 1914-1918, thus:

Although the situation was precarious, Colonel Foster allowed a soup kitchen to be opened up alongside No. 3 Field Ambulance at Vlamertinghe. The unit had originally been organized by the British Red Cross and was operated by three English women, a Mrs. Massey, Mrs. Shillington, and Ms. Perry. Soup kitchens had been assigned to hospitals on the lines of communication at a rate of one per division, but a few days before the battle Foster specially petitioned to have the one allotted to the Canadians moved forward.   It proved a wise decision. According to Major Garnet Greer, a field ambulance officer, ‘These three ladies worked steadily day and night during the battle, and, I am told, in one day fed with hot soup and cocoa over two thousand weary soldiers.’

A handwritten message attached to a copy of The British Hospital Formation under the Croix Rouge Française at Fort Mahon, Somme, and Chateau de Boismont, La Comté, pas de Calais reads:

The Hospital Staff heartily thank The Honourable Mrs Massey for her generous help in providing a motor kitchen with supplies of all kinds to cater for the wounded admitted to the Chateau de Boismont from the trenches and for her devoted services in personally attending to the comfort of the wounded in hospital there, in preparing invalid diet soups … for them. Mrs Massey joined a Battalion of Canadians (OC Lt. Col. Rogers) where her unit did wonderful work near Ypres in April 1915.  The signator takes this opportunity of thanking Mrs Massey for the great help these services were … in adding to the successful results obtained in both hospitals’.

In October 2016, Massey moved on to Serbia, where she joined the Serbian Relief Fund. The grim conditions in this theatre were recorded by G. Ward Price, the Official Correspondent with the Allied Forces in the Balkans, in his book, The Story of the Salonica Army, where he mentions Massey's service.

... and there are not a few other gently nurtured Englishwomen living, if not in actual danger, at any rate amid dreary, monotonous and squalid surroundings on the Serbian front, in order to bring relief to the population of that much-afflicted region.  There are, for instance, the Hon Mrs Massey, who was wounded by a splinter from an aeroplane bomb while at her post in Sakulevo'

Medals and citations[edit source]

As a result of her injuries from the bomb shrapnel, Massey received a citation from Marshall Mishitch, Commander of the First Serbian Army and she was awarded the Order of St. Sava, Fourth Class by the Serbian King. Massey completed her war service in Italy with the Church Army, for which she received the Italy War Medal, 1915-1918. King George V granted permission for Massey to wear the Insignia of the Fourth Class of the Order of St. Sava, "conferred by the King of Serbia in recognition of her services under the Serbian Relief Fund".

Massey’s war service is summarised in her obituary, published in the London Times on 16 May 1961. Massey also received the Military Medal "for bravery in the field". There is no record describing her bravery, but it was presumably for service during World War II, possibly with the Home Guard, as the medal was from King George 6th.

Succession to title[edit source]

Massey gained the title of Lady Clarina in 1922, on the death of her father-in-law, even though she was divorced from her former husband. She retained the title throughout her life, as her former husband never remarried. In June 1929 Lady Clarina presented her daughter, the Hon. Erin Moira Massey, to King George V for her ‘coming out’ as a debutant.

Celestina

I read that you were in the hospital and recently released. I trust you are somewhat better being home but still would like to extend my love and support for you during a difficult time. You are cherished and my thoughts drift your way multiple times a day. Be encouraged and strengthened. Life is a journey fraught with bumps, twists and turns but though the goal is the finish line never forget the importance of the character building journey itself. In regards to your health and wholeness, may my songs of love and healing be carried to you upon the wind. --ARoseWolf 14:45, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
