Title: Brunswick Sunday School - Halifax 1905
Post by: lani10 on Wednesday 02 February 11 18:45 GMT (UK)

Wonder if anyone has heard of Brunswick Sunday School from the early 1900's. My grandmother went there but I am unable to find any information about it.

Thanks,
Jan

Which Church did it belong to.  Sunday schools were usually part of a particular church

My grandmother received a bible and a prayer book with a paper pasted inside the front cover that says it was awarded to her from the Brunswick Sunday School.

I have a few snippets about the Chapel in the Chapels & Churches section of my Calderdale Companion website, but no explicit mention of the Sunday School.  As CaroleW says, these were usually associated with a particular church or chapel, and might not be a separate school building

Thanks Malcolm. It is probably the Brunswick United Free Methodist Chapel. The location on Rhodes Street is fairly close to where they lived.
