Title: Workhouse in Barton Upon Irwell 1911
Post by: ktkeith on Wednesday 26 October 11 11:15 BST (UK)

Good morning,
I would very much appreciate a little advice if possible.
I am researching my family history and have a subscription with ancestry.co.uk, They have all the 1911 Census details available but not indexed as yet.
I looked on a different website, findmypast, and there is a record of an Elizabeth Thelwell. B.1901 in an institution in Barton Upon Irwell. I went back on ancestry and managed to find Barton Upon Irwells Workhouse and St Josephs Home in Eccles, Districts 36-37. I looked through the records and could find no Elizabeth.
Was there any more institutions in Barton Upon Irwell at the time and if so does anyone happen to know the relevant registration district reference?
Many thanks for your time
Keith
