Title: Clergy Orphan School for Boys St Thomas Hill Canterbury
Post by: Josee on Friday 28 September 12 19:06 BST (UK)

Hi
I have a Walter BARROW on the 1911 census at the Clergy Orphan School for Boys St Thomas Hill
Canterbury. It records his place of birth as Liverpool, he's age 14.
I would like to verify that it is MY Walter. Are there any accessible records for this school? and if so where are they?
Can anyone help ?

Cheers Jo

  I think you will find the Clergy Orphan School is still there on St Thomas Hill, now called St Edmunds.

Thanks Top-of-Hill,

I know the buildings/school is still there was hoping there were some publicly accessible records for around 1911...ie admissions register or similar. ;D
