Lancashire / Re: single mothers home run by nuns

Hi,
I've just stumbled across this site while trying to find information about my Dad. My Dad was born on 26th February 1943 in I believe the Manchester area as this is where he was brought up until the age of 5. We think he was adopted in 1948 and may have been with his adoptive parents before this. Sadly my Dad passed away in November 2016 and had no idea he was adopted. It was a family secret, his cousins knew he was adopted but none of them seem to know any information about it other than his Birth Father was apparently French Canadian. We have a couple of pictures of him as a baby but can't work out where these would have been taken. I have been in contact with different agencies and one came back with the suggestion of the St Theresa's mother and baby home. I'm unsure of how much information/photo's etc I can post on here?
