Occupation Interests / Workhouse Master - Cambridge Union Workhouse
« on: Wednesday 05 December 12 23:18 GMT (UK)  »
I am interested in my great grandfathers brother, Douglas Ditchburn who was the last workhouse master of the Cambridge Union Workhouse. I would like to know the types of things he would have done? I know the workhouse no longer exists but any information would be fantastic. I note that it is now called Ditchburn Place which is quite nice!  :)

Hopefully someone will pick this up. I requested a birth certificate of my great grandmothers brother Eddie Lee and found that his mother was Sabina Scamp. The only Sabina Scamp I can find was born in 1892, Seasalter Kent which sounds about right.. except it would make her 14 when she had her son.

So far I have found out that Sabina's parents were George Scamp b. 1872 Canterbury and Isabella. George's parents were Samson/Samuel and Faith.

Does anyone have any information on Sabina? She must have died young as she suddenly disappears after 1906 when Eddie is born...

She may or may not have married Ernest Lee (Eddie's father).
