London and Middlesex / Re: Sidney Road Childrens Homes, Hackney
« on: Friday 11 October 19 16:43 BST (UK) »
I have found a record of a great aunt being admitted and discharged to/from Sidney Road Children's home in 1907. She was admitted at 11am on 22nd April 1907 and discharged at 12pm on 22nd April 1907, so a total of 1 hour.
Unfortunately any relatives that might know about the reason for the short stay passed away 30+ years ago, so is there anyway I can find out the reason.
Could her mother have asked her to be admitted as a short sharp shock as parents would do many years ago when they asked the local policeman to visit when a boy or girl was naughty?
Thanks
Andy
