Title: Haslemere Surrey, orphanages?
Post by: sylvieme on Thursday 03 December 20 13:03 GMT (UK)

Does anyone know of orphanages or other facilities who took in unwanted babies in Haslemere Surrey between 1925 and 1930?
There was a Cottage Hospital at that time but no indication of a link to finding homes for the babies.
Thank you
