Daughter of Rev. Andrew TOOMATH and Emily nee DOBSON
Matron Foundling Hospital and Infants' Home in 1910
Miss Ilma Toomath, daughter of the Rev. Andrew Toomath, has taken "Mt. Wise" Private Hospital Mercer-road, Malvern, and receives patients for surgical, medical and midwifery work. She is assisted by Miss Stella Walker, R.V.T.N.A. Miss Toomath is fortunately able to supply the hospital with vegetables and poultry which are grown on the premises, and keeps cows which are free from tubercle.
