In the spirit of remembrance I thought now would be the right time to add these photos and documents from my small collection

As we approach 11 November I thought I would put this information out again for others who are interested to see. The original was among my  late fathers effects ( SQMS Green)This lists the names row by row

I taught at Spencer School in the 1960s.There were various institutions of this kind, in St James and Dallington. There was also one for girls in local authority care because their parents were unable to care for them and another known as the naughty boy's homeI have taught them all.

A medic friend told me that  old records were sometimes joined together and may have info on more than 1 person.

Are you the Janet who was interested in Hancocks?

The NRO archivist has told me that the 100 year rule ( Data protection Act) still applies to the records and referred to the research service for answers to the contents of the records.

It was just a year ago, my great aunt died there in 1953. The poor woman had been there since 1920.I will visit the NRO and try again later this year.
She spent some time in an institution in Leicester because Berry Wood was used as a World War 1 hospital for soldiers for a few years.
