Matty, my Grt Grandmother had a baby in the work house on the 28th september 1904, so i went to PRONI and looked at the indoor relief book i saw that she was admitted on the 28th September suffering from diarrhea, no mention of the baby she was discharged on the 18th of October, i looked further on in the book and saw that the baby was mentioned in March 1905 it died at 12.30pm, i for got to look at the admittance date to see if it had been there since September thats my first port of call next time im over at proni. the Work house is now the city hospital on the lisburn road.
The indoor relief book tells you when people were admitted what they were in for and when they were Discharged or died. there is also another book for the deaths in the work house.
