London and Middlesex / Re: St. Margarets Unmarried Mothers Hostel - 262 Victoria Park Road Hackney

I was born at this home in September 1945 to a trainee teacher after a liaison with an American serviceman. According to my adoptive mother I was handed over two weeks after my birth on East Croydon Train Station. Paperwork appears to have been sparse or non-existant as my adoptive mother was unmarried and relied on her parents for my upbringing. I managed to trace my birth mother and my birth father's family in America. I would like to have more information on the running of this home and the policy, if any, for assessing adoptive parents. Thanks.
