Mrs Chaytor gets a mention in the write up of the 59th Division, sitting beside the driver of a Red Cross ambulance during the Rising going through heavy fire to take the wounded to various hospitals in Dublin.

Though neither were members, Mr Herbert Stanley Chaytor and Mrs Edith Chaytor were both recognised by the Saint John Ambulance following WW1
