Surrey / Re: Assisi Mother & Baby Homes
« on: Friday 24 March 23 22:19 GMT (UK)  »
Just lost a few hours researching this place, Im helping my friend with genealogy she was born in May 1965 at a MBU Hindhead, Greyshott Surrey, and her birth registration was Alton Hampshire, she was raised by her birth mother who would have been 25 when she gave birth, now her mum has passed away so she felt it was time to search for her father, we done the DNA and found her to be of Maltese/Italian heritage from her paternal side. (She was told he was Italian from her mother) She was told by her mother she went to a MBU to give birth and she returned to work not long after giving birth and the baby stayed at the unit and she visited regularly and financially supported the baby, when the baby (my friend) was 2 her mum told her family about her and her mother and sister travelled to Surrey and took her and the child home. Now how true all this was we will never know, reading everyone else’s stories on here, the pattern seems to be, you give birth and 6 weeks later your out either with or without your baby, maybe my friends mum gave her to foster parents while she worked. So does anyone know where the baptism records for the baby would be held, or even if any records exist of babies born within the MBU.  @KathrynBryant1 who started this thread Im wondering if her mum was there when you were.

Hi Humphpaul.

I can see why you would think I was connected with the surname, but no I am not related it was just a coincidence.

Lancashire / Re: Locating a grave at Ford Cemetery

This guy maybe able to help you.

Here is a map and some tips from the above website, I know the section you are looking for and it's quite small, for easy access park in Sterrix Lane outside the house's and there is a small walking entrance, go to your left B section is against the perimeter wall. If you park inside the cemetery you will have to traipse across the open section of public graves which is no good on a wet day. :)

Lancashire / Re: Roman Catholic Churches, Liverpool

Is there a list of RC churches for Liverpool.  We are trying to track down a baptism record and we need either St. Francis (I believe there is more than one) or St.Teresa RC in Liverpool.

Thanks,
Genny

If you know what district in Liverpool the family lived this may help in finding the church.

The above link if it works!! :) shows that the record office does indeed have a photograph of Gt Orford St, however not #53 but a terrace of houses on the opposite side #38-42.
