Hi
I am trying to locate records or any information on Nurse Dander's private hospital, Marion Street, Wellington. I have researched online records and papers past but can only find a few birth notices there.
My father was born there in 1918 and I would like to find further info on it and perhaps records that may have been archived.
Has anyone heard of or know where I could start?
Thanks
Sue

This is not about the hospital but the nurse herself:

Nothing found prior to 1919 for 20 Marion Street. The nurse appears to have been at Willis street in 1918.

Thank you all so very much for your input. I found some of this online but was hoping to find any records that might have been kept regarding the births there. I have tried the obvious places like Archives but nothing to be found. I will keep searching.
Kind regards
Sue
