Title: Napsbury Hospital, Hertfordshire
Post by: KathrynBryant1 on Monday 03 December 12 18:32 GMT (UK)
Hello, am wondering if anyone out there used to work at or knows anyone that used to work at the Napsbury Hospital. It was told to me that my father, George Ernest Bryant spent sometime there as a patient somewhere between 1950-1953. Dad passed away in 1961 in Brighton although he had lived in London for many years having been born in Ireland though. I have a picture which I believe was taken at the Napsbury Hospital and wonder if anyone could clarify that indeed it is the Napsbury or if anyone recognises anyone in the picture. Dad is marked with an X. I know this is a very long shot but if you don't try you don't get anywhere. I have contacted the National Archives to see if there would still be any records and if so how to go about obtaining the same.

Not sure about the picture now, whether anyone is able to see it. Kindly let me know or if there is another way I can post the picture.
 
Any help would be much appreciated.

Kind regards


Kathryn
