Hi all, I have had some great tips from you fab researchers so here goes . . . .
I am researching the Graham family from Middlesbrough, bit stuck on a few, starting with Isabella
Born 16 December 1927, Middlesbrough, mother Isabella LLEWELLYN father Albert GRAHAM.
this is the info I received from Middlesbrough workhouse recording her admissions to childrens home after her parents died;

dis        04/02/1942 to service
adm        12/02/1942 returned from service
dis        08/08/1942 to Municipal Hosp
adm        11/08/1942 from M Hosp
dis        26/12/1943 to West Lane Hosp
adm        06/10/1944 from employment
dis        13/10/1944 to work at York Blind School
adm        29/11/1944 returned from York Blind School
dis        23/04/1945 to service at Holyrood Orphanage
adm        04/06/1945 from Holyrood Orphanage
dis        04/08/1945 to Holgate Institution (Adult Workhouse)
its sad that the last record we have for her is admission to the workhouse. I cannot find any record of a marriage or death from Tees Valley Index.
I am still looking for her grandparents marriage; james henry graham b 1859 barnard castle to sarah ann Rhodes b 1858 Manchester (or cottesmore rutland, whichever census to believe!)
thank you xx

hi all, I am researching Sarah Ann Rhodes (born 1858 Rutland Cottesmore) and James graham (b 1857 Barnard castle)
I have a possible marriage for them in Chorlton in 1879, i have 2 possible births for James in Barnard castle but i cannot find a birth for Sarah. I have her from  the 1871 census in Manchester working as a servant. i thought i found her in the 1861 census am not convinced as this is the only census which has birth as Manchester
thanks in advance  ;D

hi thanks for your reply. yes, we found that record but it belongs to the other Albert Edward Graham, already disproved as has a different father.
witnesses are William Duncan and Hannah mcquade, already searched them and can find no connection.
he is a labourer and his father James henry is a joiner in 1915  :)
