Hi

Yes, I read through this, but I couldn't really glean any answers from it and was hoping someone with more knowledge now could help.

Thank you.

Lancashire / Rainhill Hospital
« on: Sunday 08 June 14 22:23 BST (UK)  »
Hello

I wonder if someone would know what happened to the bodies of those buried in Rainhill Hospital after it closed down.  I have been told that if you died there you were buried there.  Is that true?  I am trying to trace my friends grandmother who died in 1957.  My friend has all of her medical records and she was told that her grandmothers body was moved.  Having done some research, I read that if you died in Rainhill you were buried in St Helens Cemetery, and I have found a lady of the same name but she was cremated in 1985.  The lady is called Margaret Ritson. Would it be possible for any bodies later exhumed to be be cremated.

Any help and advice would be very much appreciated.

Kind regards.

Hi

I would be grateful if anybody could do something with this photo please.  It is a phone photo taken from a copy and I don't have the original.  It is of my nan, and my sister.  Not sure who the other ladies are but think one lady might be my nan's sister.  Many thanks.

Could someone brighten this photo up for me please.  It was taken on a phone and I don't have the original.  It is my nan with her grandchildren.

Many thanks

Sorry I am so late in replying.  I have now found out the occupants of the house and re-united my family member with his long lost relatives.

Best wishes

Europe / Henry John Prinsen-1893

Hi

I am hoping someone can help me trace the above man who I believe was born in Holland 1893.  He just seems to have disappeared as I can't find him. I know he married a Margaret Callaghan in Liverpool in 1918, but can't find anything else about him. His grand daughter remembers receiving presents from him addressed from Durban South Africa, when she was small, but nothing else.  I would be grateful for any help at all.

Thank you.

Thank you for uploading the images for me.  If it is him, I wonder what he had done and if there is anyway in finding out.

Once again thank you for you help, I really appreciate it.

Best regards.
