Title: Lennox Castle Hospital, Near Glasgow, in Stirlingshire
Post by: Charlie24 on Saturday 30 November 24 01:35 GMT (UK)
Looking for Katherine Vera Boyd who gave birth in this hospital in June 1950.
I'm told it was perhaps some sort of mental institution, but birth record doesn't show this.
Any information about the hospital would be appreciated, in particular if there are any records to be had.
