Yes, Kathy, it was probably me (Clare) who you remember telling you about the baptismal records! They are indeed held at the nearby church, and that's where I found confirmation that my brother Chris was born at Assisi. However, the church is Catholic, and exempt from the usual "freedom of information" rules that C of E churches have. So there's no automatic "right" to access their records. If you'd like details I will send you an email. x

Hi there, not sure if this thread is still active, but I am very interested in finding out more about the Assisi home in Hammer Lane, Grayshott. My adopted brother was born to a young unmarried mother in 1961. All I know is that he was born in Grayshott, and then given up for adoption immediately afterwards, to something called the Southwark Catholic Children's Rescue Society (?). It only a guess that he was born at the Assisi home, but having stumbled across this thread recently I think it's likely! Sadly my brother died a few weeks ago. He was only 62.
Kathryn Bryant, are you still working on a history of the home? I would love to hear from you if so.
