Hello Erin,Its been a while since I posted.I still have had no luck finding the d.o.b for my Grandmother,whom was in St.Patricks on the Navan Road Dublin in 1931 with my Mother.When you helped your friend did she find her Mothers d.o.b,and if she did where did she get it from.I tried the hospital where my mother was born under the F.O.I.act but had no joy.Thanks Cathy Kelly

Hi Barbara,
My mother was in St.Patricks Navan Road from May 1931 untill Nov.1935.This was a home for unmarried mothers from all over Ireland.Mothers stayed with their babies for a time.My mother was there untill she was 4and a half.She was then placed with an' at nurse' mother in Lucan Co.Dublin.When she was 9 she was 'adopted' by this lady.Sadly there are no records of her Mother,This is where i have come to a dead end.www.adoptionireland.com have some photos of the home.
