Title: manchester industrial school for girls
Post by: bman on Friday 08 November 13 17:14 GMT (UK)
Hi,
Is anyone still researching the above school. I know that I have come to this a bit late, but I have only just discovered my grand-mother, Polly McConnell age 13, being there in 1911 census.
Does anyone have the admission and discharge dates?
Thank you
bman

Hi,

The ink does indicate some records on FindMyPast; might be worth checking if your library has access or if it is worth buying a few credits for the site.
