The Heritage Centre have done what they can do for me
. My Mother and her brother were to taken into care in1922. This is where my information gets shakey. I belive her brother was housed in Plemont Villa / House home for boys near the London Cemetery 1922 before going off too Canada. I have been lucky I have learnt a little from my cousin on the lads arrival in Canada.
Can anyone fill in the gaps in the earl stages of the childrens movement. I have copies of the court papers and there is no mention where they went. Maybe St Faith's Shelter or other Girls / Boys Homes. I have learnt there was a Girls home at the top of Hills Street but I don't know how to open their doors. It took a long time to sqeeze information out off the Authorities because of the disclosure of information, I have to learn the lad went to Canada and my mother was moved at the age of 6 to Bristol run by the Nuns (Workhouse?) for 10 years. I would like to fill the early gaps in the children's life so I can write it up.

Hi Tony, I completely understand the desire to not put names on the internet but it makes helping almost impossible. I think that it would be unlikely anyone could help anyway over events that were 100 years ago but even a newspaper search would require names. |
