Hi,
Trying to track Catherine Busher, the only information i have is she had a daughter at the Mothers Hospital in October 1922 and the hospital is listed as her address. He occupation is a Hotel Book-Keeper on Grosvenor Street, Camberwell.
Is there any records of her admission that might give me more information to work with? if they are based in London is there any wonderfully kind person would could look it up or would the archivist in charge be able to send me the information?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi,
I remember the Mothers Hospital from the days when I used to work in Hackney. From memory, I think it was run by the Salvation Army. If you apply to their head office, they may be able to help you.

It looks as if records for Mother’s Hospital of the Salvation Army are held at St Bartholomew’s Hospital Archives & Museum

Hi
Please let us know how you get on but remember....
The information you require is less than 100 years old, and you may be asked to provide documentation that she and the child have now passed away.
They may also make a charge for supplying you with information
